Cesare Pavese
“It was odd how everything had changed but was still the same. Not a single one of the old vines remained, not a single animal; what had been meadow was stubble, and what had been stubble was vineyard, people were gone, grown up, died.”
Cesare Pavese, La luna e i falò

“Home's where you go when you run out of homes.”
John le Carré, The Honourable Schoolboy
