Jonathan Franzen Quotes
She Reshelved The Sixpack And Wrenched Herself Away To Less Compelling Parts Of The Store, But It Was Hard To Plan Dinner When You Felt Like Throwing Up. She Returned To The Beer Shelves Like A Bird Repeating Its Song. The Various Beer Cans Had Different Decorations But All Contained The Identical Weak Low-end Brew. It Occurred To Her To Drive To Grand Rapids And Buy Some Actual Wine. It Occurred To Her To Drive Back To The House Without Buying Anything At All. But Then Where Would She Be? A Weariness Set In As She Stood And Vacillated: A Premonition That None Of The Possible Impending Outcomes Would Bring Enough Relief Or Pleasure To Justify Her Current Heart-racing Wretchedness. She Saw, In Other Words, What It Meant To Have Become A Deeply Unhappy Person.
