“Carin var och förblev familjens ljuvt leende, krävande svarta får. Äldsta systern Fanny hade hållit i pennan. Nu kallar hon Carin hysterika, men skulle bara fem år senare skriva en tårdrypande, romantisk, överspänd bok, präglad av stjärnögd nationalsocialism.

“Carina and I exchange a look, a silent conversation passing between us. If I had to guess, it goes something like this: “I’ll deal with the friend.

To some of us, it is an inconvenience from which we unashamedly run. We have become experts in maintaining a grand scope of friendships and amateurs in genuine intimacy and care. Unwittingly, we have sacrificed everything on the altar of self-sufficiency—only to discover that we have sold our souls to isolation.”
