“It's not the letter she imagined she would write, but once you start, all the other letters you've ever written in your life have a way of creeping in.”
Susan Elderkin, The Voices

“Outside, the coo shadows that lurk under rocks and beneath houses during the day have crept out for their night-time prowl. Fingers of them climb up my legs beneath mu nightie, chasing out the warmth of my bed. Cold beats hot, like stone beats scissors and paper beats stone.”
Susan Elderkin, Sunset Over Chocolate Mountains

“p. 559 : "Mondo piccolo, Don Camillo", Giovanni Guareschi”
