Auster
Miss Denning, I want you to write about that day. In detail. Write about the weather, write about what you were wearing, what you were thinking. Be specific. A whole world emerges from little details.
For example, when we buried my son, I'd forgotten to put in my contact lenses... and I stood over him right before they closed the coffin... trying to fix him in my memory.
I could see the red from his sweater
and his blue pants... and there was a scab on his forehead that hadn't healed - From a bicycle accident - and I could feel that scab when I kissed him... but when I looked at him, it was... well, it was out of focus.
So, when your dad left, what were you doing?

I don't look like anyone. Not even myself.

Thank you for the gold star, and your leaving. Blue car, gold star. The leaving is a gift, I will always hang on to.

Tagging as knitting 🧶 even though I knit for 5 minutes at the beginning of the movie and then got too engrossed to continue.
