Sex And Death (2016)
“But it’s a very nice cup and saucer, proper porcelain, pure and white, Royal Limoges France on the base, good quality, the cup more like a little bowl, it feels good in the hand, the saucer quite deep.

He’s a man who, in the middle of the night in his hospital bed, pulls off the oxy...gen mask and lets it drop, pulls the tube that’s attached to whatever’s hanging off the side of the bed out of his midriff, swings his legs out the other side from the tube and the hanging things and stands up. He tests his legs to see if they’ll hold him. They will.
