Tideland Quotes

“On my first evening in the back country, I skipped down the porch steps of the farmhouse-leaving my father inside and the radio playing and my small suitcase decorated with neon flower stickers unpacked-and wandered towards the upside-down school bus I'd spied from an upstairs window.”
― Mitch Cullin, Tideland

“Someone had carved into the metal wall, a corroded scrawl I hadn't noticed before. The words were upside-down—etched higher than I could reach—but easy to read: LOIS YOU SUCK BUTT! "Suck butt," I said. "You suck butt." What a crazy thing to do. I didn't want to think about it. "That's dumb," I told myself.”
― Mitch Cullin, Tideland
