I thoroughly enjoyed reading your reflections, Vashik! Conversations with Eckermann is my constant companion, and there's always something to learn from Goethe, though sadly, Ananke doesn't always grace us with her presence :)

It is such a wonderful read and I would love to do more posts on Goethe’s Faust, my only worry is that some people might think it is too niche if I send 4 letters straight just about Faust! What do you think?

No one will ever say there are "too many" smart discoveries :))

I'm debating between rereading Fusto or Divine Comedy, I mean, I want to reread both but can't decide which first jaja

This post is amazing!

Thank you so much Mariana! Apologies if I reply with a delay. I was struggling between them as well! But then thought I would focus on Faust till the end of this year and dedicate to Divine Comedy next year. :)

Do you think it would be too much if I focus my newsletters on Faust for the next 2-3 weeks?

That is a plan😌✨ And I think is perfect. This kind of books needs lots of dialogue and deep reading so is great on my opinion!

I believe your Director would say, bring it into the light, get it done and if 2-3 is what it needs, then that is exactly what should be done.
