“Perhaps we think we can destroy the places of our past by returning: by reimagining, rebuilding. A utopia is, after all, a thing that rises from disaster, ruin, rubble. Without all that failure there can be no such thing as a utopia, since there would be no other reality to compare it to.” — Laura van den Berg
