the song of achilles by madeline miller.
i could recognise him by touch alone, by smell; i would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. i would know him in death, at the end of the world.

my bookshelf → the song of achilles by madeline miller
this, i say. this and this. the way his hair looked in summer sun. his face when he ran. his eyes, solemn as an owl at lessons. this and this and this. so many moments of happiness, crowding forward.

“There exist only three beings worthy of respect: the priest, the soldier, the poet. To know, to kill, to create”
-Charles Baudelaire
Rama is the king of Ayodhya and hero of the Hindu epic Ramayana. On his coronation day, he is sent into exile for fourteen years in order to keep a promise his father made. Ever the dutiful son, Rama happily sheds his crown and leaves for the forest. His devoted wife, Sita, and his fiery younger brother, Lakshmana, accompany him although no oath compels them. Together, the three of them traverse the forests of India, and their travels make up most of the epic.
