Pickpick

I don't have any really good sentences for this book, but I can say it was a cacophany that is the only way to do justice to a huge formless tragedy like the AIDS crisis or a neverending war (in this case the military involvement of Israel and Syria in Lebanon from the seventies to the nineties). It was heartbreaking and now I'm both not okay at all, and better than okay.

"Scott died in 1990. They never really figured out what finally killed him. You know how some people die and it seems just right? They are at peace. They have a glow about them in their last days. They say the wisest things. Scott wasn't one of those."

Open Library had a digital copy and I'm so happy!
