"Have never been intrigued by the beginning of the book for a very long time. Love love love the misty atmosphere of Viscos." — Jan 03, 2026 05:16AM

"I’ve known for quite some time how much F1 teams rely on historical data analysis to prepare for a race but Chapter 12: Thinking Ahead raised my appreciation to a whole new level. With only three one-hour practice sessions, it means that they must have a checklist of things they need to get a read on, from tyre performance to pit stop loss. They even have a tentative strategy and finishing position in place." — Sep 03, 2025 10:51AM

"The chapter with Nicole’s letters is so heartbreaking. What she wrote, especially in the first few letters, are almost incomprehensible but there is so much sadness and longing in every wood. You could almost feel her trembling hands as she wrote them down." — Apr 12, 2026 01:16PM

“I wasn't aware that words could hold so much. I didn't know a sentence could be so full.”

“She was nobody here. It was not just that she had no friends and family; it was rather that she was a ghost in this room, in the streets on the way to work, on the shop floor. Nothing meant anything. The rooms in the house on Friary Street belonged to her, she thought; when she moved in them she was really there. In the town, if she walked to the shop or to the Vocational School, the air, the light, the ground, it was all solid and part of her, even if she met no one familiar. Nothing here was part of her. It was false, empty, she thought. She closed her eyes and tried to think, as she had done so many times in her life, of something she was looking forward to, but there was nothing. Not the slightest thing. Not even Sunday. Nothing maybe except sleep, and she was not even certain she was looking forward to sleep. In any case, she could not sleep yet, since it was not yet nine o’clock. There was nothing she could do. It was as though she had been locked away.”

“Graham had a lot of trouble with taste. Often his thoughts were not tasty. There were no effective partitions in his mind. What he saw and learned touched everything else he knew. Some of the combinations were hard to live with. But he could not anticipate them, could not block and repress. His learned values of decency and propriety tagged along, shocked at his associations, appalled at his dreams; sorry that in the bone arena of his skull there were no forts for what he loved. His associations came at the speed of light. His value judgments were at the pace of a responsive reading. They could never keep up and direct his thinking. He viewed his own mentality as grotesque but useful, like a chair made of antlers. There was nothing he could do about it.”
