At first what was it but an apprehension sweet as far bird-song -- a tremulous thing -- an awareness that fate had thrown them together; a world had been brought into being -- had been discovered? A world, a universe over whose boundaries and into whose forests they had not dared to venture. A world to be glimpsed ... through simple words ... quite colourless and void; save that they set their pulses racing.

And. I'm. Done. 150 pages of "critical assessment" left, but. The last book, is done.

"Are you not Titus, the Seventy-Seventh Lord of Gormenghast?"
"Am I? By heaven I don't feel like it; not with you about." Ugh. Is that the point then?

Let us drain it dry at a gulp and then turn our backs on one another, forever. Titus, oh Titus, come to the barbecue. Hahahaha

That he abhorred her brain seemed almost to add to his lust for her body. Oh boy.

So, it makes no sense in this book (like everything, in this book) that Titus and Juno are in love now? But just look at how incredibly beautifully this is being written? Idek. I knew this book got weird, but I didn't really expect it to still make me love it, too.

There is no calm for those who are uprooted. They are wanderers, homesick and defiant. Love itself is helpless to heal them though the dust rises with every footfall -- drifts down the corridors -- settles on branch or cornice -- each breath an inhalation from the past so that the lungs, like a miner's, are dark with bygone times.

How often had he seen her leave him, but never quite like this. So far this book has been a lot like an untethered balloon, but this whole page is completely awesome.
