Julia Armfield
“A house, unlatched, is less a house and more a set of rooms through which one might be hunted.”
Julia Armfield, Private Rites

Julia Armfield
“Hard to count the hands pressed to glass, the bodies on the platform that rings the house and sits gently on the surface of the water. Ghost-forms becoming solid as she looks at them, dark figures, people staring in from without. The key in the lock is unexpected, the sound of the door thrown back, the footsteps, the figures in the hall. Agnes looks from Isla to Irene, finds herself unable to speak, unequal to the moment.
This is the wrong genre, she thinks, and a figure in the doorway is smiling at her and there will never now be time for resolution, to finish the conversation they were trying to have.”
Julia Armfield, Private Rites

Julia Armfield
At what point, she wanted to say, do we stop being the direct product of our parents? At what point does it start being our fault?
Julia Armfield, Private Rites

“There is little the imagination can do with an ending that is already assured.”
Julia Armfield, Private Rites

Julia Armfield
“What comes next will be trickier, of course. Snowfall and a drop in temperature, a world tilting, the suddenness of something new. Best to keep on, wherever this is possible. Best, in time, to swim back from a drowning place and continue, struggle back into dailiness, and to live with the icing-over of windows, the frozen pipes and bad wiring and increasing impossibility. Better, in whatever small way, to go on until it becomes too cold to do so. Better to hold one’s hands to whatever warmth there is, to kiss and talk and grieve and fuck and hold tight against the whitening of the sky.”
Julia Armfield, Private Rites
