“I wish I knew how to quit you*”

(*) il bisogno spasmodico di una trama che faccia a pezzettini il mio cuore e che poi eventualmente schiacci anche quei miserabili residui con irriverenza.

More of a novella than a short story. Can be read here:

I wish I knew how to quit you. No words ever ranging more true and a gay relationship ever. But in all seriousness this book delivered exactly what I hoped it would with the yearning and the beautiful landscape and the homosexuality. I would recommend and would read again.

“There was some open space between what he knew and what he tried to believe, but nothing could be done about it, and if you can’t fix it you’ve got to stand it.”

Devastating. Beautiful. Proulx is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.
