Chingiz Aitmatov, My Poplar in a Red Scarf
This is a book Iāve finished reading now for the second time, because I remembered how good it was. There are many spoilers here, so you can stop reading now if youād like. Iāve swallowed the book whole today and read 107 pages of it (itās a small book). Itās a story about Ilias, a truck driver from Tian Shen in Kyrgyzstan that tells his story to a young journalist. Itās a story about tragedy and beauty, love and heartache. Ilias meets for the first time with Asel, a young woman, in her aiyl (a kyrgyzic village).

Memento Mori

It happens to me. It happent to everyone. Itās human, actually. Because time is beyond our full comprehension.
