"Jack, I swear--"
this line gets me every time.
add The Wings by Gustavo Santaolalla to the mix and i'm crying my heart out.
Molto probabilmente ora mi toglierete dagli amici, scusatemi :')
Comunque non so, mi è sembrato un Harmony scadente scritto da una dodicenne :/ (ora sarei proprio curiosa di sapere che età aveva l'autrice lol)
Per quanto riguarda i dialoghi e lo svolgimento degli eventi (forse dipende dall'edizione che ho letto?) non mi hanno trasmesso nulla, probabilmente se ci avesse messo in mezzo la lista della spesa non me ne sarei accorta. Deludente!! :S
I picked this one up upon my daughter's recommendation. She read it in grad school recently and extolled the virtues of its stark, descriptive prose. It is 55 pages and yet tells an absolutely devastating story of forbidden love. I haven't seen the movie- of course I will now, having read this incredible work. I had an ulterior motive- I also knew it would fit one of my #52booksin52weeks prompts- Under 200 pages- check. brilliant, powerful storytelling- check. This is the gold standard of short stories.
