I was reluctant to pick up this book as I had disliked Fates and Furies so much but I am so glad I did. I found this story engaging and beautifully rendered. Groff's prose -poetic and lyrical - fit wonderfully within the context of this tale. The the ...more

Elie Wiesel
“The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.”
Elie Wiesel

Jeanette Winterson
“I want someone who is fierce and will love me until death and knows that love is as strong as death, and be on my side forever and ever. I want someone who will destroy and be destroyed by me.”
Jeanette Winterson, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit

Jeanette Winterson
“The body shuts down when it has too much to bear; goes its own way quietly inside, waiting for a better time, leaving you numb and half alive.”
Jeanette Winterson, The Passion

Jeanette Winterson
“I am good at walking away. Rejection teaches you how to reject.”
Jeanette Winterson, Weight: The Myth of Atlas and Heracles

Anna Burns
“The truth was dawning on me of how terrifying it was not to be numb, but to be aware, to have facts, retain facts, be adult.”
Anna Burns, Milkman

Daniel Hello to both of you sisters, Cristina and Toni who are balancing the earth, with Cristina on one side and Toni on the other (U.S.A. and Holland). I can tell by the books you read that both of you good looking chicks have higher than average IQs.

Cristina Hi Toni,
