“I love Sheila Heti with all my heart, but I couldn't find a way into this one. The first & second person switching took a long time to get used to, even as someone who loves a lil form switch-up. Maybe I'll give this another try one day and it'll feel a bit clearer?
Favourite quotes:
Naturally I dislike most forms of communication and often there isn't time. If ten years pass and I find myself without friends, this failing will be the cause.
When my father died he left me nothing. My father loved me, but when he died, he gave me nothing. I remained standing at the cemetery gate, the lawyer at my back, reading out the will as I gazed into the hilly, stone-speckled field. I was left standing in the field, the lawyer close behind me like death on my shoulder, reading out the will in which my father gave me nothing.”
