I knew too that despite Rick appearing to be within touching distance, he was not in reality so near because of the fierce border separating our boxes. Even so, he continued to reach out towards me, and where his arm crossed into my box, it appeared elongated and bent. ‘Klara, come on!’
WTF is all this weirdness in this passage? Such a trip, a creepy trip, and it makes me feel sorry for Klara that she has these weird boxed perspective problem, and yet still pushes through so bravely.
And another thing: it seems that *every* character has at least one pretty big life challenge: divorces, kids dying, social miscues, sickness, Klara’s software glitches…
