Quotes by Elizabeth Brooks (?)

“Now that I have finished today's entry and read it over, I find I am dissatisfied. The narrative fits together too well; it makes too much sense; one thing leads too neatly to another. It's not that I have lied, certainly there were trains caught, and conversations exchanged, and sandwiches consumed, but these incidents were secondary to the true story of the day; to the unruly clash of fears and griefs and speculations taking place inside my head.”
― Elizabeth Brooks, The House in the Orchard
