Richard Flanagan Quotes

Amy, Amante, Amour, He Whispered, As If The Words Themselves Were Smuts Of Ash Rising And Falling, As Though The Candle Were The Story Of His Life And She The Flame. He Lay Down In His Haphazard Cot. After A Time He Found And Opened A Book He Had Been Reading That He Had Expected To End Well, A Romance Which He Wanted To End Well, With The Hero And Heroine Finding Love, With Peace And Joy And Redemption And Understanding. Love Is Two Bodies With One Soul, He Read, And Turned The Page. But There Was Nothing - The Final Pages Had Been Ripped Away And Used As Toilet Paper Or Smoked, And There Was No Hope Or Joy Or Understanding. There Was No Last Page. The Book Of His Life Just Broke Off. There Was Only The Mud Below Him And The Filthy Sky Above. There Was To Be No Peace And No Hope. And Dorrigo Evans Understood That The Love Story Would Go On Forever And Ever, World Without End. He Would Live In Hell, Because Love Is That Also.
