I love him, but perhaps he does not love me. How could he? I am careful never to be myself around him.
A quick read with beautiful prose.

a perfect example of what good description can do to elevate a short story. This piece has a sensory feel to it. While not every detail is understandable to me or even particularly groundbreaking there are so many images that cling to my mind. In addition, the plot is very addictive? It was a mystery? I am not really sure but the piece moved in a very natural way and the events that happen are truly intriguing. Maybe not the most groundbreaking short story but definitely one that I would like to revisit and maybe analyze.

Listened to the audio version on New Yorker, highly recommend listening during lunchbreak in the park.

Halfway through the album I could tell that William had a type. He liked them Northern, scrawny almost; all parsimonious hips and jutting clavicles. He liked them scowling – a little hungry-looking. He liked them Scottish.
He had me at the "parsimonious hips".
