martattack reviewed sala de los espejos by Liv Strömquist
Review of 'sala de los espejos' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
BEAUTY - am i right ladies
This is a super informative yet heartbreaking book. The endless pursuit of beauty, the tyranny of beauty - how the ffffck did we get here? A great dive into the historical, sociological, philosophical relevance of beauty, both collectively and individually.
Im a victim and perpetrator of this futile, unattainable pursuit of beauty (as you probably are too, reader), and reading this was sad, and frustrating, and super insightful, and did i mention sad?
Why cant we all bake a cake full of rainbows and smiles and be happy :'(
