The interaction between Afsar and Dajas begins with childlike innocence.. playing in a space where words are unnecessary. just glances and shared joy. I like this.

another novel tha is A MUST i just finished it and im obsessed :
When Nietzsche Wept is a 1992 novel by Irvin D. Yalom, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry at Stanford University, an existentialist, and psychotherapist. The book takes place mostly in Vienna, Austria, in the year 1882, and relates a fictional meeting between the doctor Josef Breuer and the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. The novel is a review of the history of philosophy and psychoanalysis and some of the main personalities of the last decades of the 19th century, and revolves around the topic of "limerence".

Plot
Lou Salomé, who was involved with Friedrich Nietzsche, has written a letter stating that the future of the philosophy of Germany is at stake and that Nietzsche needs help desperately. The plot develops into a therapy in which Doctor Josef Breuer needs to have his soul treated to help him get over a patient whom he treated for hysteria and with whom he has fallen in love, while Nietzsche needs help with his migraines. Influenced by the revolutionary ideas of his young disciple Sigmund Freud, Josef Breuer starts the dangerous strategy that will become the origin of psychoanalysis. Thanks to their unusual relation, both of them will see how their perspective of life changes completely. The story also explains how Friedrich Nietzsche received the inspiration to write his famous book, Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

I was starting to read a novel some time ago i rarely read something after the uni lol, Called "Herzog"

Herzog is a 1964 novel by Saul Bellow, composed in part of letters from the protagonist Moses E. Herzog

The novel follows five days in the life of cultural history professor Moses E. "Herzog" , who at the age of 47 is having a midlife crisis and burnout following the divorce from his second unfaithful wife. He has two children, one by each wife, and is in a relationship with a really cute woman, Ramona


Herzog spends much of his time both on intense and often hilarious intellectual reflection and mentally writing letters he never sends. These letters are aimed at friends, family members, and famous figures, including historical recipients who are dead or whom he never knew. The one common thread is that Herzog is always expressing disappointment, either his own in the failings of others or their words, or apologizing for the way he has disappointed others
at almost i read the 80% of the book so maybe one day i will start reading it again
