Where love rules, there is no will to power;
And where power predominates, love is lacking.
The one is the shadow of the other.
Carl Jung

Today is Harper Lee’s 100th birthday.
Born in a small town in Alabama, where her father worked as a lawyer, Lee loved #books. One of her childhood friends was Truman Capote, who spent time in #Monroeville as a boy. Years later, she turned the world she knew into a novel about the difficult bravery of doing what is right when the world refuses to do so.
Do you like her novel To Kill a Mockingbird?

Classic sci-fi imagined machines taking care of the boring and dangerous work, so humans could spend more time creating, reading, and connecting.
And somehow, we ended up with the opposite.

Patrick Süskind’s Perfume is about a gifted boy and a cruel world. It offers a glimpse of French history, the perfume industry, and, most of all, the strange, intoxicating universe of scents: streets, flowers, human bodies, and even feelings.
This is a novel you can almost smell.

Daniel Kraus Wins 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction with Angel Down as a “breathless novel of World War I, a stylistic tour-de-force that blends such genres as allegory, magical realism and science fiction into a cohesive whole, told in a single sentence.”

Happy National Limerick Day!
A limerick is a five-line humorous poem with a distinct AABBA rhyme scheme and a bouncy rhythm.
Edward Lear (born today) popularised the form in the 19th century, frequently using them in his #Book of Nonsense.
What is your favourite limerick? Feel free to share 😉

Today is Daphne du Maurier’s birthday!
Few #writers could create an atmosphere like Daphne du Maurier. Her #stories begin elegantly, then something shifts. A beautiful house can become a prison, love can turn into possession, and silence can be more frightening than a scream. Suddenly you are #reading faster than you planned.
Have you read any of her #novels?

A little patch of land.
Bread on the table.
A dear friend you can talk to.
A small house you can call Home.
Rabbits…
Such a modest dream. And yet so impossibly out of reach.
Which character from this story stayed with you the most?

Magic can give you just one thing. Choose wisely:
Knowledge?
Courage?
Love?
Or simply more time at home?
You will receive it today, because today is L.Frank #Baum’s birthday - the #author of The Wonderful #Wizard of #Oz.

The English poet Roger McGough sends readers’ eyes travelling to and fro the way a tennis ball would across a net when they read 40-Love. Indeed, the poem itself – like the “middle aged couple” he writes about – is split by such a ‘net.’

Today is Dracula Day.
Some monsters never die 🧛♀️
Bram Stoker gave the world more than a vampire. He created a shadow that still follows us through books, films, dreams, and nightmares.

Ian Fleming (May 28, 1908 — August 12, 1964) didn’t invent James Bond out of nowhere. During World War II, he worked in British Naval Intelligence and saw from the inside how real secret operations were planned.

Shel Silverstein is famous for his children’s poetry and illustrations.
In poem Lazy Jane the word "rain" hovers just above Jane’s open mouth, as the string of words above it seems to represent the trickle of water she longs for.
