Когда наступает депрессия или смятение, попробуй лечь на спину на полу и подними лапы вверх. Иногда мир выглядит лучше вверх ногами.
"The novel's spirit is the spirit of continuity: each work is an answer to preceding ones, each work contains all the previous experience of the novel. But the spirit of our time is firmly focused on a present that is so expansive and profuse that it shoves the past off our horizon and reduces time to the present moment only. Within this system the novel is no longer a work (a thing made to last, to connect the past with the future) but one current event among many, a gesture with no tomorrow."
