"Fairly interesting but I am very tired of the author constantly inserting stuff about “she didn’t need feminism back then, she just got on with it“ and so forth. And “you couldn’t do that now because criticism culture“ about stuff like sexual-harassment and driving home drunk. I don’t know, those things don’t seem like sweetly nostalgic things that make me want to return to the past." — Aug 14, 2021 09:38PM

“The trees around and overhead were so thick that it was always dry inside and on Sunday morning I lay there with Jonas, listening to his stories. All cat stories start with the statement: "My mother, who was the first cat, told me this," and I lay with my head close to Jonas and listened. There was no change coming, I thought here, only spring; I was wrong to be so frightened. The days would get warmer, and Uncle Julian would sit in the sun, and Constance would laugh when she worked in the garden, and it would always be the same. Jonas went on and on ("And then we sang! And then we sang!") and the leaves moved overhead and it would always be the same.”
