Book cover for Still Missing
I think people can be so crushed, so broken, that they’ll never be anything more than a fragment of a whole person.

Mona Awad
“But I wasn't listening. I wasn't stopping. Because we were already running away again, me and my imagination.”
Mona Awad, Bunny

“You must learn in life to take things more lightly, my dear. The world is always changing. Learn how to allow for it.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, City of Girls

Ottessa Moshfegh
“Sleep felt productive. Something was getting sorted out. I knew in my heart—this was, perhaps, the only thing my heart knew back then—that when I'd slept enough, I'd be okay. I'd be renewed, reborn. I would be a whole new person, every one of my cells regenerated enough times that the old cells were just distant, foggy memories. My past life would be but a dream, and I could start over without regrets, bolstered by the bliss and serenity that I would have accumulated in my year of rest and relaxation.”
Ottessa Moshfegh, My Year of Rest and Relaxation
