Next. A gift from a friend who lives in Denmark
Next up. This book has been on my #tbr for years. The author is out with a new novel with gorgeous binding and I though it was about time to read the one I already own before buying the new one.
I have heard a lot of great things about this author. Just hope my expectations aren't too high.
It‘s strange, he lies, I never miss you when you‘re not here. I get so scared I might forget you, he tells her. He has talked her into meeting. I‘m beginning to forget you, he says. That‘s the way it‘s supposed to be, malicious voices tell her...And presumably it is what he wants...It is summer and they are constantly on the run from someone. Both of them seeing someone else now, and one of them always wanting to try again. But only one.
"I am tired and wish to see clearly, a gaze that is knives and scissors, an incision into what really is. That's how I want to see, and how I want to be seen. It'll be a mess, a filthy mess. Disorder everywhere, disappointment as far as the eye can see. But you. And me, who sees you. Maybe it's more than enough, maybe it's all you can ask for."
This book is killing me in the sweetest way.
