Andrew Sean Greer
“By the end, Arthur Less is in tears, sobbing in his seat, and he thinks he has been sobbing quietly until the lights come up and the woman seated beside him turns and says, “Honey, I don’t know what happened in your life, but I am so so sorry,” and gives him a lilac-scented embrace. Nothing happened to me, he wants to say to her. Nothing happened to me. I’m just a homosexual at a Broadway show.”
Andrew Sean Greer, Less

Andrew Sean Greer
“He kisses—how do I explain it? Like someone in love. Like he has nothing to lose. Like someone who has just learned a foreign language and can use only the present tense and only the second person. Only now, only you. There are some men who have never been kissed like that. There are some men who discover, after Arthur Less, that they never will be again.”
Andrew Sean Greer, Less

Bradley Somer
“There's such a fragile, thin veneer of illusion between the words "together" and "alone".”
Bradley Somer, Fishbowl

Fredrik Backman
“Ove stomped forward. The cat stood up. Ove stopped. They stood there measuring each other up for a few moments, like two potential troublemakers in a small-town bar. Ove considered throwing one of his clogs at it. The cat looked as if it regretted not bringing its own clogs to lob back.”
Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove

Tim Winton
“But I spose the women and the children was the closest. There’s something about the men just stops them being able.”
Tim Winton, The Shepherd's Hut
