It was a good day. Spent the whole time with Ali. Went to the library, ate dinner in a Chinese restaurant, library again, and then watched a film. Ali was working on a paper about Mosadeq, and I finished Josef Herman’s journals. I’m so happy that I picked up this book. Came to me by chance. I was on the 9th floor of Du Bois library, looking at the titles. I was just interested in reading an artist’s diary, and Herman’s book grabbed my eyes. I’m sure I’ll reread it at some point in the future.
Talked to Ali about Van Gogh and his prophet-like life. Van Gogh; a man that I would proudly cut my both ears for.
Thought about my grandfather. My mother. Their loneliness.
