I believed that books might save him because I knew they had so far, and because I knew the people books had saved. They were college professors and actors and scientists and poets. They got to college and sat on dorm floors drinking coffee, amazed they'd finally found their soul mates. They always dressed a little out of season. Their names were enshrined on the pink cards in the pockets of all the forgotten hardbacks in every library basement in America. If the librarians were lazy enough or nostalgic enough or smart enough, those names would stay there forever.

Cand nu aveam de munca, preferam sa dorm cat de mult puteam - undeva intre dousprezece si paisprezece ore mi se parea un inceput bun. somnul te scuteste de umilinte si te ajuta sa economisesti bani: nu mananci nimic, nu cheltuiesti bani pe nimic, ci doar stai pe spate si visezi. Ma trezeam duoa-masa, ma uitam la serialele preferate de la televizor, dupa care ma tranteam pe canapea pentru inca o repriza de cateva ore de somn. Devenise un fel de hobby ca in fiecare zi, la ora 17:00, sa ma uit pe ziar la oferte de munca intrebandu-ma cine se califica, oare, pentru acele posturi: paznic de seif, vanzator pre-press, evaluator tehnic. Acum serios, aratati-mi si mie un copil care viseaza sa devina, cand va fi mare, verificator de mate pentru carnati.
