"It’ll be this kind of deep blue" she said. "The kind of color that somehow sucks your eyes and your ears and all your words - the color of a completely closed-in night."

There are many days when all the awful things that happen make you sick at heart, when the path before you is so steep you can’t bear to look. Not even love can rescue a person from that.

New fiction! These are the 12 monthly picks from this year of the Belletrist website, I was commissioned by a book group who had been reading along with them!
I’ve only read a couple of these as I usually wait for paperbacks, but I liked both The Premonition and The Guest.

"Ognuno di noi vive la propria vita portandosi dietro il peso del dolore che ha provato. Ci sono anche quelli che non provano niente e che non portano alcun peso: basta un'occhiata per capire chi sono. Sembrano automi, sono diversi dagli altri. Quelli che portano un peso li riconosci dal colore; dall'incedere pieno di grazia."
