#unreliable narrators... vera i knew you were my girl

[eleancrvances]

finally started reading "laura" by vera caspary, and never have i been more delighted to realize we'll be getting various first person narrations and that the first pov is waldo's, who says outright in the second chapter he's gonna be describing scenes he wasn't present for because he can. i love it when liars lie. and i love it when they're wrong. "mcpherson is the hero but not the interpreter, that is my omniscient role" you're not gonna like who narrates next buddy

we knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them. — the virgin suicides by jeffrey eugenides

she wasn’t even sure if she loved him, as much as they were fused. like he was an extra appendage, a part of her that could never be severed. a single heart beating between them. the two of them lived in a bubble of their own making. other people might see the dark edges, but they saw only the gilded center. — the roanoke girls by amy engel
