Начало книги

You are a very real person when that is what you wish you weren't most.

You avoid phone calls.

You fail in yearlong increments that shake hands with their successors when their shift is done and then go home proud.

You think that all lives are an individual's strange insistence on choosing a lifetime of last words.

You look at your hands and say, "I wish these were hard enough to ruin bricks and stones," and then you say, "but I don't know how to make my head into a brick or stone so it doesn't matter."

You have imagined yourself standing still, smiling as everyone around you drops dead.

You have a vision of a faceless woman sitting in a chair knitting the future and it is a long photo negative of everything that happens ever.

You have bad paranoia and you can't even return things you buy when you find out they’re broken, because you are annoyingly shy out of nowhere.

You wash your face after crying so you can just say, "No, I’m just tired."
