Wow! A whole class in substack form. I'm so grateful to have found you and plan to work through the sentence exercises one by one. If I'm feeling courageous maybe I'll post my attempts. Do I dare?
There are so many things to love about this sentence. I am especially struck by the polarities of beauty and misery, which seem to be the DNA of the life force (or farce). The dance between those two keeps the aspidistra moving through the sky, inviting mysterious smiles to appear, as if out of nowhere. (And thank you for reminding me to read Bolano!)
