Ceci n'est pas the öppningsmening, men den förekommer i inledningspassagerna: "It was a late-November afternoon, in the confusing year of 1978, and Eugene was headed back to school after a wild weekend exploring the demimonde." Främlingar på tåg. Den ene, den identitetssökande, incidentally, bär rosa solglasögon, Liberace-fuskpäls och en latinbok. Det räcker för mig. Jag är fast, trots otäck carpe diem-gråzon senare och värre än så. Älskar berättelser från New York sent 70- eller tidigt 80-tal....
this is a short story - that at times was difficult to follow with character changes - interesting plot, thought provoking, typical jeffrey eugenides.
A story that somehow resembles the storyline of Catcher in the Rye. I didn't feel too attached to the main characters but that might be because i've grew too old. Still 1 of the better stories in the 2019 collection of short stories
