‘In spite of her desire for a contained universe, her life felt scattered, full of many small moments, without great purpose. That is what she thought, though what is most untrustworthy about our natures and self-worth is how we differ in our own realities from the way we are see by others… We relive stories and see ourselves only as the watcher or listener, the drummer in the background keeping cadence.’

– Michael Ondaatje, Divisadero
