“I Used To Think There Was Such A Thing As Emptiness, That There Were Places In The World One Could

“I used to think there was such a thing as emptiness, that there were places in the world one could go to be alone. This, I think, is still true, but the error in my reasoning was to assume that alone was somewhere you could go, rather than somewhere you had to be left.”

— Julia Armfield, Our Wives Under the Sea

you know those little critical thinking questions that they had at the end of short stories in literature textbooks? we should start putting those in posts. i miss them,,,,,,

questions:

what call to action is the author arguing for?

why does this work lack capitalization? what might this tell you about the author? what might this tell you about the context this work is meant to be read in?

is the addition of the questions self referential? does that make this post humorous? how so? how would the post be different without the addition of the questions?

to be honest there has never been a fictional character i’ve actually wanted to date. like. i want them to date each other. i don’t want myself as a person to be involved in this scenario whatsoever. what would i add to this narratively? what’s my thematic purpose in the narrative? immersion breaking.
