Unless (Carol Shields)
~
"In my new life--the summer of the year 2000--I am attempting to 'count my blessings.' Everyone I know advises me to take up this repellant strategy, as though they really believe a dramatic loss can be replaced by the renewed appreciation of all one has been given."
"My daughter is living like a vagabond on the streets of Toronto, but even so I had to have four yards of screened bark mulch delivered to the house this morning, $141.91, including haulage."
From Unless, a novel by Carol Shields (HarperCollins, 2002).
