A few minutes ago I woke up and didn’t know where I was. Or more precisely, I thought I was still in the Perche and stretched my arm right to check the time (thus hitting my husband) instead of left, the direction of my Paris night table and clock.

Mary Fleming Stoner, by John Williams. I just finished reading this book that was written 50 years ago and had gone out of print until 2013. The writing is beautifully restrained.
