Quotes by Pip Drysdale (?)

“Oh good. Nothing I love more than a man telling me what I should do. Because, you know, he probably knows better than I do how I should live my life.”
― Pip Drysdale, The Paris Affair

“And this is true. There’s something about doing a full orbit of the sun that always fills me with an inconsolable sadness. It’s not just to do with age. It’s the inescapable realization that this is my one and only life. And how is this it?”
― Pip Drysdale, The Close-Up

“So maybe this is what my book is about, deep, deep down, below the plot and the drama: the invisible decay of the human soul when it’s always on display.”
― Pip Drysdale, The Close-Up
