I agree...I think even if a text is translated into English, it will most definitely lose certain aspects/value held linguistically only in the original language (case in point: The Holy Bible).

Although, in Paulo's case, I think it is intentional--which is why he can express so much by saying so little. All the while maintaining the complexity of an array of topics/emotions which he expresses in a sequence of natural regressions (ie. returning to a premative state of mind--like Plato's tabula rasa) IMO., thus explaining the awkwardness.

Also...all this talk about surrealism--I absolutely LOVE Salvador Dali (fav. surrealist painter)❤️.

Bella ji,
I think you are the one representing Yale 😊.

Let me go and read up on Salvador Dali.

That is what I wanted to say as well... I am starting to feel ignorant. I don't even have a favourite surrealist painter... 😛

Huh? How so? 😆 (but thank you😳....that is the BIGGEST compliment of the century😳...but I still don't understand what made you say that).

From time to time there are a couple pieces of Salvador Dali at the Guggenheim and I'm captured instantaneously (I was first introduced to his art when I was in 5th grade, and since then I have determined to own one of his original art pieces someday😳).

Frau Blot-to-be is similarly engrossed with Gustav Klimt... I, on the other hand can't even begin to understand what it is that she sees... 😕

Really I wonder why I never read it, it's quite famous it seems. I love it I was addicted last night even though I had a headache I kept reading😆!!

Btw is Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson?

If so here is a pdf download link to that:

Thank you, Pinki! 🤗
That is really cool... I should put this up in the first post, and Pinki can be designated as the official link provider! ⭐️

Also, you might find his work unusual.

You are talking about Plato and Tabula Rasa..😆 😆 ..who knows you may even start quoting Horatius
And surrealism in paintings 😕.
I can't diffrentiate beween still life and modernism.

I would really like it if somebody confirms to me whether the English translation of the Quran sounds stylistically similar... I have wanted to know this for sometime. Perhaps RW can tell us when she drops by again... ⭐️
