“I knew where my father was too; my mother had shown me his resting place on the day of his funeral. It’s a bit far away, she told me, but we’ll both be joining him there someday, so we’re not likely to lose track of the spot. Your father is kind, she added, so he’s gone on ahead to see where we’ll be.” — Yōko Ogawa
