Probably the best chapter i’ve read of this book. Reading & Eating p236.

“does sex ever feel like this for a man? does his tree change and spout does the system get up? Does he go? I once was laying in bed with her, and she got me off by touching, and I am still sinking backwards in that picture a morning in which I lie in bed, looking out the window at a passing train.”

i really wish i knew what she was talking abt

“but when i liked sex, it was generally a mistake.”

“Minds are always being taken over. succumb don’t resist. because we do get to choose what we are succumbing to. We create world out of what we put in our heads. I don’t know about you. It’s why I read.”

if this bitch could use punctuation maybe i’d understand what she’s talking abt

eileen’s version of the fig tree is duck duck goose

the kennedys & germany

I really don’t hate her writing anymore— it’s definitely for a certain mood and brain capacity. Like in the morning when your brain is fresh and can notice the little things. (Though, dialogue is still insufferable).
The way she describes her life is very poetic— she is a great poet— that’s what makes this book interesting. It doesn’t feel like a real novel with a straight chain of events.
