"To hope is to lose." #Tides

"Mara feels useless, a jellyfish clinging to itself, the body a mere emanation of some distant nervous system." #Tides

"She is not sad, no. Gutted, yes. A clean cut down the middle and all the organs cupped, tossed off to the side." #Tides

"She knows that for a moment, each had believed in it: that they might find it in each other, a clearing amidst the thicket." #Tides

"She is sandwiched between the two of them: the old and the young, the drunk and the nearly drunk. She pictures herself this way: cold cut, melted cheese, a tomato slick with seeds." #Tides

"Maybe they were right. That night, she moves with a fatalism that feels so familiar, no time has passed. The body works of its own accord, intent on spiting the mind and its resolve. She is nearly aroused." #Tides

"The streets are dead, the summer crowd gone... She prefers the town this way, she decides, mild-mannered, breathing after its seasonal pillage. A regular heartbeat after a period of strain." #Tides

"You can't teach someone how to slip. You slip and then you've slipped and so you know." #Tides 📚

"She could wait for him to wake up... beg him for a few more nights. But this cannot be that, she thinks. She returns to the wallet, takes the university ID and slides it into her pocket. He should know better: there is no way back to the past." #Tides 📚

"Not feeling is a feeling too." #Tides 📚

"In the bathroom mirror, she lets herself look up. She sees what the woman must have seen: the gaunt face, the hairbmatted to one side, the lips chapped..." #Tides 📚

"She is content, for now, to watch the comings and goings from afar." #Tides 📚

"The sea, in this new town, is surprisingly hard to get to. It is somehow everywhere and nowhere." #Tides 📚
