“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, or who had ever been alive.”
― James Baldwin (1924 - 1987) American writer.
What books have you read that have helped you with your pain?
Kafka - Metamorphosis
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy and have been helped by the books of Albert Camus. This is more with existensial pain than physical pain but I think it has given me stregth that you need when you have a chronic mind bending pain like you can get with fibromyalgia. I am really enjoying visiting all your blogging people.
