Quotes by Arthur Phillips (?)

“Love is not sufficient. It never has been. Stories that claim otherwise are lies. There's always SOMETHING after happily ever after.”
― Arthur Phillips, The Song Is You

“He fell in love with Manhattan's skyline, like a first-time brothel guest falling for a seasoned professional. He mused over her reflections in the black East River at dusk, dawn, or darkest night, and each haloed light-in a tower or strung along the jeweled and sprawling spider legs of the Brooklyn Bridge's spans-hinted at some meaning, which could be understood only when made audible by music and encoded in lyrics.”

I just finished reading "the song is you" and I really loved it. During the last 15 pages I had this desperate need to listen to "I cover the waterfront" because I had never heard it before. I found myself searching itunes for a live copy, just hoping to hear Julian's father on the beginning of the track.

It's been awhile since I've read a book I enjoyed this much. Thank you so much.

Arthur,

Decided to pick up Angelica after hearing about it online and loved it! Fantastic book and a real page-turner that I have, since, recommended to friends. Next on my list is The Egyptologist. Thanks!
