btw I use Blackwells to order UK editions. (I live in the US.) Shipping is free / included in the listing price, which is still around typical online book prices. It's a store in Oxford whose website ships internationally. Just adjust the currency to USD.

Thanks for the recs! I’m 100 pages into “Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow”. I really like all the video game references and the characters are appealing. Good stuff so far!

Hello Mauve, "The Colossus of Marussi" is one of my favorite books. I love Greece (and the Greek people). You can feel the warm caress of the sun on your skin through these beautiful pages by Henry Miller. Somehow, Miller was regenerated by Greece. If you haven’t read Nikos Kazantzakis yet, I highly recommend you "Freedom and Death". Kazantzakis is certainly one of the greatest Greek writers of the 20th century. I wish you a good trip to Greece: it is really a country that has the power to change those who discover it. There is clearly a before and after. Thank you very much for this new video! 💛🙏🏻

@@MauveASMR You’re welcome! I’m sure you will love the book by Henry Miller & also the one by Kazantzakis, which tells a crucial part of the history of Crete to conquer its independence against the Ottoman Empire. I wish you a nice reading and a wonderful trip! 💛 🇬🇷

Tove Jansson is, like, my favorite person in the whole world. Her little island was really close by to a cottage I used to spend my summers in and many of her (for adults) novels and short stories are set in similar places. I hope you enjoy The Summer Book as much as I do. ☀️

Natalia Ginzburg is truly one of the GOATs-I have the joint NYRB Classics edition of Valentino and Sagittarius, but I’m so jealous of those gorgeous Daunt copies!

Your previous summer book recs video was the first video of yours that I stumbled upon and I loved that video so much that I instantly subscribed. Thanks for making another one! I'm currently reading Second Place by Rachel Cusk and im really enjoying it so far💙

OMG!! Three Summers is my favorite book of all time (at least it is rn)! Also this is so random but I credit you with kickstarting my interest in “lesser known” books when you recommended Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead in one of your videos years ago.

Love seeing Bonjour Tristesse on your list - it's already been made into a film in 1958, so it has that 'old school' feel to it - stars David Niven and Deborah Kerr. Copies are still available on dvd :)

I stumbled across Sagittarius in a book store the other day (that specific cover too, it's soo nice) and bought it on a whim! I just finished Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan Quartet (destroyed me) and have heard that Ginzburg is the next best author to read, even though I guess she's the OG lmaoo
@MauveASMR2 ай бұрын
I lost my set of Neapolitan novels trying to send them in the mail (did I mention it in this video? I forget but I feel I'm always mentioning it lol because people are always like "lost how??") and have been aiming to buy them again, hopefully sooner rather than later! I just love them in the summer. Also yes, I'm on a big big Ginzburg kick right now, she is just phenomenal 💜

Have you seen the tote bags from daunt books? They are so so nice! I have two just in case. I hope you have a lovely time in Greece! My recent book haul: the country will bring us no peace, reptile memoirs, crooked plow, Greek lessons, not a river, study for obedience, the marriage of Cadmus and Harmony, the devil's flute murders, visitation... Several more actually... Zero willpower to pass up the recommendations when I'm in Blackwell's 😊
