“Claire wanted to be the only one in the world who loved Lucy Ascher. She knew this was impossible and even silly, but she enjoyed pretending that she was Lucy Ascher’s disciple, the only one in the world who felt such far-reaching sorrow and joy when thinking about her. A passion of that sort is not something you share with another person.”
Multiple Perspectives/Narratives, Minimal Plot, Art-House
Death, Obsession, Grief
Skillfully written in dark, poetic prose, this was about death and the portrayal of grief disguised around obsession. It had a sort of gloomy air to it and an eerie, creeping nostalgia that's hard to place.
