just finished reading the Age of Innocence and the last line that Archer speaks to himself, sitting on the bench outside Madame Olenskaβs Paris balcony after not seeing her in almost 30 years has left me unwell.
βItβs more real to me here than if I went up.β
Cancel all my calls. I will be bedridden for several days. thanks.
