Best gift (thank u Sofiaaa) which I stayed up reading into deep deep night. The humor and sadness of this passage: “A state of lassitude would follow in which I suffered less. Yet, even during that phase, I never relaxed completely. I carefully scrutinized myself: would it return? I would refer to the torture with vague words, as if I could hold it off that way.”
