What an insane journey

"It wasn't about you."

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE SO COMPLICATED 😡

"... in 1979, my dad was around the age I am now, and given a Saturday afternoon he could have spent any way he pleased, he chose to spend it with his twelve-year-old son, making this ridiculous little tape. He probably forgot about it the next day. But I didn’t. "

"... Como ligar-se a um homem senão permitindo que ele a aprisione? Como impedir que ele desenvolva sobre seu corpo e sua alma suas quatro paredes? E havia um meio de ter as coisas sem que as coisas a possuíssem?"

"Como se visse alguém beber água e descobrisse que tinha sede, sede profunda e velha. Talvez fosse apenas falta de vida: estava vivendo menos do que podia e imaginava que sua sede pedisse inundações."

Four pages in and I totally get her.

"I’m angry at this old Korean woman I don’t know, that she gets to live and my mother does not, like somehow this stranger’s survival is at all related to my loss. That someone my mother’s age could still have a mother. Why is she here slurping up spicy jjamppong noodles and my mom isn’t?"

Almost 1/3 of this book and I'm tired of these two already
