god I loved this book. I tried Oranges a long while ago and didn’t get along with it - this was like Oranges but tailored for my reading. I finished the thing in an accidental hour-sprint. Beautiful, funny, wonderfully written, I’m starting to adore this author.
“There is still a popular fantasy, long since disproved by both psychoanalysis and science, and never believed by any poet or mystic, that it is possible to have a thought without a feeling. It isn't.
When we are objective we are subjective too.
When we are neutral we are involved. When we say 'I think' we don't leave our emotions outside the door. To tell someone not to be emotional is to tell them to be dead.”

Wow. Beautifully written and a journey of feeling to read. Thank you to all my friends who recommended it to me

You know how sometimes a book can find you at the right time? That’s how this book felt for me. I had never heard of JW before reading this. Now I can’t wait to read Oranges.
