“There is a law somewhere that says that when one person is thoroughly smitten with the other, the other must unavoidably be smitten as well. Amor ch’a null’amato amar perdona. Love, which exempts no one who’s loved from loving, Francesca’s words in the Inferno. Just wait and be hopeful. I was hopeful, though perhaps this was what I had wanted all along. To wait forever.
As I sat there working on transcriptions at my round table in the morning, what I would have settled for was not his friendship, not anything. Just to look up and find him there, suntan lotion, straw hat, red bathing suit, lemonade. To look up and find you there, Oliver. For the day will come soon enough when I’ll look up and you’ll no longer be there”.

“The meaning of the river flowing is not that all things are changing so that we cannot encounter them twice, but that some things stay the same only by changing”.

I have seen the movie, and just ordered the book ! Such a nice story !
I can’t get enough of it, I’ve read the book, the script, watched the movie and ordered Polish copy of the novel. I can also recommend „Center of my world” / „Die Mitte der Welt” – with Louis Hofmann (Jonas from „Dark”).
I have seen this movie too, and I loved it ! I loved how sexuality was not the center of the movie, and how they focused on the relationship between the mother and daughter. It’s good that we have movies with less drama, in terms of coming out.
