Quote by Irène Némirovsky

“Già certi attimi erano impercettibilmente meno soavi, come una musica tenera e lieta che, a poco a poco, ci rattrista e ci stanca. Una cortina d’ombra, adesso, velava certi giorni. Erano passati ormai i momenti di pura gioia. Stavano raggiungendo l’istante in cui felicità e tristezza si fondono in un’oscura convergenza e d’ora in avanti saranno mescolate l’una all’altra come due fiumi che hanno fatto confluire i loro corsi.”

She failed to recognize the girl, thought seeing her now was like a dream belonging to someone else, and that she had been asleep all her life.

Massive with a crook in the center that looked like a twisted smile, it reached for her with branches that curled like a stranger’s hands.”
