"mission to read the NYT 100 best books of the 21st century (their list is just the most comprehensive, fuck the NYT otherwise)
Me like Denis Johnson but only read his shorts until now. This is sad and funny so far and I like that all the men are somehow soulless and deeply feeling" — Oct 15, 2025 09:47AM

Whatever charm she had was losing its potency. Not fully, not totally, but enough that she began to understand it was a possibility.
“Tonight I love you in a way that you have not known in me: I am neither worn down by travels nor wrapped up in the desire for your presence. I am mastering my love for you and turning it inwards as a constituent element of myself. This happens much more often than I admit to you, but seldom when I’m writing to you. Try to understand me: I love you while paying attention to external things. At Toulouse I simply loved you. Tonight I love you on a spring evening. I love you with the window open. You are mine, and things are mine, and my love alters the things around me and the things around me alter my love.”
