Another amazing daybreak … “‘It’s good to sit and watch this gentle world,’ L said. ‘We tire ourselves out so.’ — Rachel Cusk, Second Place: A Novel (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, May 4, 2021).
In the silence the soothing sights and sounds of the marsh, the waving grasses flecked with butterflies, the distant soughing of the sea, the trailing ribbons of birdsong and the calls of the geese and gulls, could come into focus. ‘It’s good to sit and watch this gentle world,’ L said. ‘We tire ourselves out so.’
