Andre Aciman Quotes

Oliver Liked To Keep The Windows And Shutters Wide Open In The Afternoon, With Just The Swelling Sheer Curtains Between Us And Life Beyond, Because It Was A 'crime' To Block Away So Much Sunlight And Keep Such A Landscape From View, Especially When You Didn't Have It All Life Long, He Said. Then The Rolling Fields Of The Valley Leading Up To The Hills Seemed To Sit In A Rising Mist Of Olive Green: Sunflowers, Grapevines, Swatches Of Lavender, And Those Squat And Humble Olive Trees Stooping Like Gnarled, Aged Scarecrows Gawking Through Our Window As We Lay Naked On My Bed, The Smell Of His Sweat, Which Was The Smell Of My Sweat, And Next To Me My Man-woman Whose Man-woman I Was, And All Around Us Mafalda's Chamomile-scented Laundry Detergent, Which Was The Torrid Afternoon World Of Our House.
