Avoidance

Avoidance


A little less than a human being, a little less than a happy high, a little less than a suicide, the only things you really tried.

"In many ways, he [Carlisle] and Mary are well-suited to each other: practical, calculating, image-obsessed. And creepily possessive though he is (that hunt scene does not bode well for married life), Carlisle isn’t totally in the wrong—he loves Mary, and she’s emotionally all over Matthew, and right in front of him. Matthew, for his part, has started dropping lines like “Would you like me to come with you, to explain what’s happening?” which is the Edwardian lawyer equivalent of “let’s go on an activity date so I can put my hands all over you and talk down to you while I teach you how to hit a golf ball/rock climb/paint a very delicate piece of pottery.” And that cemetery scene, oh boy. Could these two be any more infatuated with their own agony?"

No, it’s more savage and more cruel than I could’ve imagined, but I feel useful for the first time in my life, and that must be a good thing.
