if I had to pick one, my favorite part about this book was watching how time is understood in parallel through two distinct and intimate parts of Alice’s life—the caretaking of The Father who is becoming unable to track the passage of time, and embarking on a Project about The Artist whose work challenges the notions of how we chose to understand and experience time. quite meta, but unpretentiously so.

at some point, Alice reflects that “her only real idea about time was that it passes and that this is sad.” perhaps after all, there is not a more apt of a revelation to be had. I’ll be holding this book close for a long time.
