Johara’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Widow Basquiat: A Love Story

Widow Basquiat: A Love Story by Jennifer Clement

2 highlights

He smells of leather, oil paint, tobacco, marijuana and the faint metallic smell of cocaine. He wears handmade wool sweaters and long Mexican ponchos. He never walks in a straight line. He zigzags wherever he is going.

“We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known.”
