Julian Barnes Quote

Καθώς μετακινούμαι και ακουμπάω το καλάμι μου πάνω σε μια γάμπα που ο ύπνος έχει χαλαρώσει τους μυς της, εκείνη αισθάνεται τι κάνω και χωρίς να ξυπνήσει απλώνει το αριστερό της χέρι, παίρνει τα μαλλιά από τους ώμους της και τα σηκώνει στο κεφάλι της, για να μπορέσω να κουρνιάσω στον γυμνό λαιμό της. Κάθε φορά που αντιδρά έτσι, η ακρίβεια αυτής της ενύπνιας φιλοφρόνησης με κάνει ν' αναρριγώ από αγάπη.
