Was just blessed with a trip to this masterpiece of a building. Indeed the most beautiful place I have ever stepped foot in. It IS Erik. Haven’t understood or loved that novel more than now.

The Exterior Artwork on The Opera House
The Dance by Carpeaux —&— Lyrical Drama by Perraud
Why. Just, why. This is a beautiful horror tragedy following a murderer skeleton who sleeps in a coffin and writes his musical scores in blood—a story of obsession and sorrow—NOT a story for YA adaptation. That’d be like turning Dracula into a YA story—oh, wait, they did, it’s called Twilight.
I hate this world.

This.

Theme of this little book, The 8 Grecian concepts of Love. A final project that I’ve forgotten the parameters of, for a class I cannot be bothered to recall, BUT I got two books out of it, one in English, and one in dubiously translated French.
