I was born in Paris in the mid-1960s, and by the time I was 12 I had started going to the movies by myself. Most of the movies of that period never appealed to me.

I'd been depressed before, of course. But I'm talking about really depressed. Not just feeling a bit down or sad, a depression that has something to do with biorhythms.

I know now.

E. M. Forster
-
Poet: 'Straton wanders among the Scythian nomads, but has no linen garment. He is sad at only wearing an animal's pelt and no tunic.' Do you get what I mean?

What really grabs me is when a reader writes to express her personal story and how a book helped her situation, or her acceptance of a situation she can't change.
