No matter what I would say about this book, the truth is that it can't be summarized.
The plot serves as an excuse for writing scenes so vivid that it's impossible not to feel as though you've lived them. I saw those images, had those conversations through Rachel Cusk's words, and I'm not going to make the mistake of trying to explain them.
" the translator says that a sentence is born into this world neither good nor bad, and that to establish its character is a question of the subtlest possible adjustments, a process of intuition to which exaggeration and force are fatal. Those lines concerned the art of writing, but looking around himself in early middle age my neighbour began to see that they applied just as much to the art of living. Everywhere he looked he saw people as it were ruined by the extremity of their own experiences".
