"He sat still but barely listened, because he was watching Jo's face and body for landmarks, tiny forgotten expressions and expressionless gestures which would connect the stranger sitting here now (surprisingly aged) with the other people he had known over the past quarter-century who went by that name and face."
I've had this exact same thought so many times, how many people can be contained within one mind and body over the course of a lifetime. There are stylistic parts of this novel that aren't to by taste, but goddamn if Arnold wasn't so observant in a way that pierces me with recognition.

"For years she was too little to run out by herself because something might happen to her, until she was too big because the other thing might happen."
Well damn if that doesn't sum up my entire experience of being an adolescent teen girl in one sentence. 😭
