Emily St. John Mandel Quote
That people here see her as an eccentric, the actor’s wife who inks mysterious cartoons that no one’s ever laid eyes on—My wife’s very private about her work, Arthur says in interviews—and who doesn’t drive and likes to go for long walks in a town where nobody walks anywhere and who has no friends except a Pomeranian, although does anyone really know this last part? She hopes not. Her friendlessness is never mentioned in gossip blogs, which she appreciates. She hopes she isn’t as awkward to other people as she feels to herself.
