"He was like a man who had served a term in prison or had been to Harvard College or had lived for a long time with foreigners in South America. He was like a person who had been somewhere that other people are not likely to go or had done something that others are not apt to do."

Beautiful quote. Makes we yearn for something, but I'm not sure what. Would you recommend the book?

It is making me yearn for that man -:) great quote.
DeleteOne of my favorite books ever! Nice quote.
ReplyDeleteThis quote makes me think of a beach but with a stormy weather, no reason why! I love it
ReplyDeleteThis quote is quite lovely, we all, well I long to discover things that no one has ever discovered and go places other people have never gone before. To acquire knowledge that is rare. To find something deeper... Yuri, like I say every time, it never fails that when I come to your blog I always want to read the book you've posted about. This time was no exception.

Ahh, this book was amazing! I'm a big fan of Carson McCullers. The way she crafted character relationships in this book were both compelling and heartbreaking...
