Gillian Flynn Quote
Think about it, Nick,we know each other. Better than anyone in the world now.’It was true that I’d had this feeling too, in the past month, when Iwasn’t wishing Amy harm. It would come to me at strangemoments – in the middle of the night, up to take a piss, or in themorning pouring a bowl of cereal – I’d detect a nib of admiration,and more than that, fondness for my wife, right in the middle ofme, right in the gut. To know exactly what I wanted to hear inthose notes, to woo me back to her, even to predict all my wrongmoves ... the woman knew me cold. Better than anyone in theworld, she knew me. All this time I’d thought we were strangers,and it turned out we knew each other intuitively, in our bones, inour blood.It was kind of romantic. Catastrophically romantic.
