Music, Movies, and Books

Books : Mostly poetry and non-fiction now, even though I've been an avid reader of classics. I've recently enjoyed books by Andrew Solomon and Daniel Kahneman. I love beautiful comics as well (fan of Christophe Blain).

Music : I like folk, psychedelic / progressive rock, krautrock... (Moondog, Can, Robert Wyatt, Caravan)
And have discovered a lot of Brazilian music thanks to my boyfriend.
Recently I'm going through a wide discovery of classical composers.
Anything that is complex, moving or interesting I will listen to. I love sharing and discovering music so don't hesitate to ask or send playlists !

Of course like any respectable person I idolize Gainsbourg and know many songs by Brassens by heart and will sing/yell them if invited

Movies : I love silly 60's movies with Peter Sellers ; strange 70's movies with a good soundtrack like Phantom of the Paradise or RHPS ; on a different note, long silent haunting films like Tarkovski or recently Under the Skin ; beautiful animation, especially Ghibli.
