I was raised among books, making invisible friends in pages that seemed cast from dust and whose smell I carry on my hands to this day.
It is one of the benchmarks of a culture I always think – the page at which it operates. A good way to measure it is to order a taxi and see how irate local people get if it is late.
Maybe I write because I’ve learned to show certain parts of my heart on the page that I still struggle to capture in speech.

The revolution has no leader, I said. It was more like a raging wild horse that would buck anyone who tried to mount it against its will.
There is only one page left to write on. I will fill it with words of only one syllable. I love. I have loved. I will love.
