Two quotes I’ve saved so far:
“A literary work, like a small child, may take a long time to achieve a fully independent life. Or it might have no life at all.”
“The world, as the cliché ran, held its breath, and it is not easy to organise or attend mass protests in favour of decarbonising civilisation or write books about it when you are holding your breath.”

I love how eloquently every moment is described. I’m feeling a great desire to absolutely binge this book, but at the same time I feel like I need to take my time to ponder upon every sentence.
