Reading is a profoundly moving habit. An act of pleasure that submerges you so deep, your life’s demarcated by chapters. With time, these blur into a seamless ocean of stories, some profound, others lame, a few catastrophic, a couple moving. . And then, from within this ocean of imagination comes a tale unparalleled in originality. A myth so blissful, it beacons like a lighthouse, harbors your soul within the mesmerizing cocoon of its dark gravity. Once there, you realize: This is what you'd been missing. What all other stories desired to be. . I felt this after Night Circus, and Starless Sea’s no different. For a book this ethereal, the only way to describe it is with the words of the author herself: "a cool conversation about overlapping narratives... and how no single story is ever the whole story." . Imagine: An unseen world of bees and keys that preserve stories and storytellers. A subterranean network of suspended reality, drunken time. Myths that wander off the page, people both missing and immortal. A mysterious cult and dual-eyed woman working to undo it, one door at a time. These multiple stratagems are raindrops on a spider web and at the centre stands the son of a fortune-teller, Zachary Ezra Rawlins. . Starless Sea is a romance written in honey. A homage to all literary souls are quilted in stories whose solitude naps between books. It’s a love letter to those haunted by regret for turning away from thresholds because they believed the door wouldn’t open and thus, never tried. It’s a reaffirmation of faith, trust and pixie dust. . Morgenstern's imagination is the lilt of a flute; her prose so persisting, it twirls in your brain and blood like music & wine. She strings mysteries, looping unconnected chapters as myths layered upon myths like a cake. The multiple narratives are tied by characters that grow as they move in and out of the page and a dizzying mystery that never stumbles. . When you reach the end, you understand why I took 8 years to make this book. You leave this world with a strange sense of peace. An unrelenting assurance that the characters continue off the page. You're just not meant to know them. Not yet #saraabesukhanreviews

A repost of my first personal blog because: . 1. What I said then still stands true. . 2. I just sent out a story and am feeling a little fragile. . . . . #writingaboutwriting #writingislife #writinglife #musings #thoughts #feelings #spilledink #thinkers_and_writers #writersofinstagram #writercommunity #artofwriters #wordsmith #anxiety #dreams #determination #saraabesukhan #mirageoflanguage #writer #reader #blogger
