Quote by Gwendolyn Kiste

“It's always startling to see her... the way looks like a fever dream, like something not quite real. That valence of dark hair over her eyes, those lips always painted bright red as a pomegranate seed-- I've just come face-to-face with a street full of ghosts... but nobody's ever haunted me like she does.”

When he called the dogs in he sounded just like the horn he carried slung over his shoulder and never used, but clearer, mellower, as though his voice were a part of darkness and silence, coiling out of it, coiling into it again. WhoOoooo. WhoOoooo. WhoOooooooooooooooo.”

“I lay on the grass with the air hanging around me, heavy and still. Not a sound disturbed the night save the trickle and truckle of two waterways, now seeming to chuckle together at some private joke. Perhaps they had seen the Devil ride out so often they found him ridiculous.”
