“I write for love, but love doesn’t pay the bills.”
― The Bazaar of Bad Dreams
― The Bazaar of Bad Dreams
“She falls back like a dead weight. The red hair loosens from the hair band and spreads in the colorful surface of the pillows, her white body is in sharp contrast, the gleam in her bloodshot eyes becomes intense and shines. My aunt, lying like this, looks like a goddess in an orgasm, only that, inside, she is suffering. I close my eyes and breathe deeply. The same is happening to us, we're really disappearing. I think of the matter of our bodies, changeable, disappearing in the particles of the air while we breathe. In this room, everywhere, we are printed on the walls, in the air that settles on things. I breathe and look at her. I'm stuck in her.”

“E eu estou aqui, no cimo do meu prédio, encostada ao vidro da parede, a olhar para baixo e a pensar na rapidez com que um corpo atravessará o ar, até cair lá em baixo e se estilhaçar. Dizem que a pressão é tão grande que, mesmo antes de a pessoa aterrar, já está morta. Dizem que a velocidade é tão grande que a pessoa nem se consegue aperceber de que vai morrer. Dizem que o impacto não dói nada.”

“Não lhe consigo responder, porque não existo dentro de mim mesmo.
(...)
Não lhe consigo responder, porque estou em todo o lado menos no meu corpo.”

“Tenho vinte e um anos, mas parece que ando aqui há tanto tempo que já não consigo suportar o que me rodeia e o meu espírito está exausto. Como serei eu em velho? Quando penso em mim, daqui a muitos anos, vejo-me numa casa vazia. Já sei que vou morrer sozinho.”
