“That first pregnancy is a long sea journey to a country where you don't know the language, where land is in sight for such a long time that after a while it's just the horizon - and then one day birds wheel over that dark shape and it's suddenly close, and all you can do is hope like hell that you've had the right shots.”

“My son will forever travel through a moonless night with only the roar of wind for company.... A drowning man is not separated from the lust for air by a bridge of thoughtâ€”he is one with itâ€”and my son, conceived and grown in an ethanol bath, lives each day in the act of drowning. For him there is no shore.”
