Rick Yancey Quote

The Great Gatsby's my favorite book, he says. F. Scott Fitzgerald dedicated it to Zelda.His wife? I say.Yeah. His crazy-ass wife who he had no business loving that much, he says, giving me a loaded look. You know what their joint epitaph says? It's a quote from the book... Their kid picked it for them.I shake my head. What's it say?His eyes close halfway as he recites, So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
