Nicole Krauss, Great House

“...after all, who isn't a survivor from the wreck of childhood?”
Nicole Krauss, Great House

“There are seasons vaster and subtler than the cycles of the year. After a time of harmony the world begins to darken.”
Roderick MacLeish, Prince Ombra

Nicole Krauss
“Sometimes I get the feeling that we're just a bunch of habits. The gestures we repeat over and over, they're just our need to be recognized. Without them, we'd be unidentifiable. We have to reinvent ourselves every minute.”
Nicole Krauss, Man Walks into a Room

Nicole Krauss
“The kiss stayed there with no place to go, no sensory reserve that could absorb it and file it away as a common act of intimacy, a thousand times received. He knew what Anna was asking: whether you could love someone without habits.”
Nicole Krauss, Man Walks into a Room
