I’m reading this book by Joanne Harris. It’s about a writer (Jay), who has lost his muse.
From what I've gathered so far, Jay’s first book — a international best seller — was about his childhood mentor(?), Joe. To recapture his childhood inspiration, he’s just purchased a house in the French countryside.
I love this:
"‘Travel far enough’ Joe used to say, ‘and all rules are suspended.’ Now Jay began to understand what he had meant. Truth, loyalty, identity. The things which bind us to the places and faces of home no longer applied. He could be anyone."
::sigh:: the unrestricted freedom of becoming anyone.
