“We all have so many functions, so many ways of existing. In my own vision of myself, I am a scholar who lives quietly, and pens his little tales, and dreams about a past that may or may not have existed. And that is true, as far as it goes.

The disappearance begins immediately and in a certain sense never ends.

― Damon Galgut, The Promise
