Nam Le Quotes

The River Was Behind Him. The Wind Was Full Of Acid. In The Slow Float Of Light I Looked Away, Down At The River. On The Brink Of Freezing, It Gleamed In Large, Bulging Blisters. The Water, Where It Still Moved, Was Black And Braided. And It Occurred To Me Then How It Took Hours, Sometimes Days, For The Surface Of A River To Freeze Over - To Hold In Its Skin The Perfect And Crystalline World - And How That World Could Be Shattered By A Small Stone Dropped Like A Single Syllable.
