It’s definitely been a long road. I think about how I had to deal with rude and ignorant customers as a convenient store cashier during junior high‚ the strenuous labor working alongside my mother at the dry cleaners in high school‚ and then finally those dreaded double shifts waiting

Love in literature What do we talk about when we talk about love? Early poets reached for the sun and stars to describe their beloveds‚ while novelists have struggled to convey their ’wretched ordinariness’. At matins on 6 April 1327‚ in the church of St Clare in Avignon‚ Francesco Petrarch may or may not have seen Laura for the first time: her skin "whiter and colder than snow‚ not touched by the sun for many years"‚ golden hair‚ black eyes.

McEwan centers the book on a real mental condition called De Clerambault’s Syndrome‚ which
