margarete's review against another edition
5.0
natural fantasy!!!
such a wonderful, thoughtful exploration of the sublime and the beautiful, art and aesthetic. a thorough, minute collection of observances of natural phenomena and the wonder that accompanies such close looking and eager appreciation. reminded me of Barthes at times, especially in the section near the end on The Portrait. also brought to mind Tainaron, in a way--maybe something about the voice? not sure, but certainly a new favorite.
