I was talking to a man today about fragments and he exclaimed in the most colourful tones, great excitement, at my novel and declared it something like “fucking rad, exactly what this century needs, fragment, fragment up 2010.” Then he raised his arms and took off in a cloud of enthusiasm to play the bass guitar very loudly. Bless, bless.

A woman, a stranger at the same gathering, told me “I love to watch your relationship with your son. I’ve noticed it and I love to watch it. ”

Another lovely fragment.
