"I finally made it past the first, really dark, chapters. They were incredibly difficult to read – even though very well written – I can only imagine how difficult it was to translate and edit that section of the book. Going over the segments again and again... This is not to say that chapter Three isn't violent. It is. But in a different way. A way that allows me to continue reading, slightly less visceral." — Apr 13, 2017 05:23AM

I do not like Hardie, it was beastly what he said about Ravi being only clever. And he wrote a foolish book. Being good-looking and interesting and having the heavy-lidded gaze of a romantic tapir does not excuse writing a foolish book.
This 'tapir' thing made me laugh out loud! A little more when I got it confused with a capybara and couldn't find the quote :")
“Wanderer, your footsteps are the road, and nothing more; wanderer, there is no road, the road is made by walking. By walking one makes the road, and upon glancing behind one sees the path that never will be trod again. Wanderer, there is no road-- Only wakes upon the sea.
Caminante, son tus huellas el camino, y nada más; caminante, no hay camino, se hace camino al andar. Al andar se hace camino, y al volver la vista atrás se ve la senda que nunca se ha de volver a pisar. Caminante, no hay camino, sino estelas en la mar.”
― Campos de Castilla

“I was born twice: first, as a baby girl, on a remarkably smogless Detroit day in January of 1960; and then again, as a teenage boy, in an emergency room near Petoskey, Michigan, in August of 1974.”
