"Waiting had become something to enjoy, to savor; waiting was almost a tribute she owed herself."
~p. 56, "The Debut" by Anita Brookner
Sounds interesting. I don't like waiting myself.
ReplyDeleteThanks for participating!
Both this, and the beginning you posted, sound SO Anita Brookner to me... I'm the authority, having read one book by her, of course :) but it does sound just like the tone I enjoyed so much in Hotel du Lac. Glad to visit another IABD participant.
