Gail Honeyman
“You can't have too much dog in a book.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

Gail Honeyman
“She looked at him with so much love that I had to turn away. At least I know what love looks like, I told myself. That's something. No one had ever looked at me like that, but I'd be able to recognize it if they ever did.”
Gail Honeyman, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

Gabriel Tallent
“Dude, with your voice you are like, 'Look at all these books I've read,' but with your eyes you are like, 'Help me.”
Gabriel Tallent, My Absolute Darling

Daphne du Maurier
“They were all gone, these other selves, and they would never come back again.They had vanished, like little thoughts and little dreams, poor has-beens that had lived in me and I in them, now thrown away into the dust, not even lingering as shadows to keep me company.”
Daphne du Maurier, I'll Never Be Young Again

Daphne du Maurier
“The smell of coffee, white dust, tobacco and burnt bread, flowers with a fragrance of wine, and the crimson fruit, soft and overripe. A girl looking over her bare shoulder, with a flash of a smile, gold ear-rings showing from thick black hair brushed away from her face, long arms, a cigarette between her lips. Night like a great dark blanket, voices murmuring at a street corner, the air warm with tired flowers, and a hum from the sea.”
Daphne du Maurier, I'll Never Be Young Again
