Your writing is truly soaring here, carried on waves of disappointment, and of indignation at the warp speed of our country’s hourly collapse. Reading the concluding pages of The Great Gatsby chilled me and elevated me all at once. That is often what great art will do. Surely, there are few novels that can cause as many ripples of melancholy, emotion and loss in a manner so sublime. I may need to return to F. Scott’s masterwork to see even more clearly what you have shown in your beautiful, heartbreaking rumination.
Agreed. Soaring writing indeed - I feel your pain and despair from here. From over here, we can only watch on in dismay as we wait for the next crazy instalment from Trump-land. Truly so sorry for your country right now.
Arnie,
