such a strange book,,, going 2 think abt it for a while for sure,,, some of my favorite quotes:

“She wants to lose herself in order to be larger than herself. A rhapsody of longing overtakes her. She wants to really see. Therefore, she’s a masochist.” 27

“Belief is a technology, a mental trick for softening the landscape. The world becomes more sensuous and beautiful when God is in it.” 76

“To question food is to recognize the impossibility of ‘home.’” 145

My girl for life. Rambling for 200 pages and then forces you to read the script of her movie that everybody hates!
