Shadows Still Remain (2009)
“says O’Hara. The swarthy, hollow-eyed man behind the counter listens with the kind of tender smile found at that hour only on someone who reached adulthood in another country. While he assembles her sandwich, O’Hara surveys the refrigerated offerings in the rear, which include a shelf packed with yellow-, lime- and coral-colored waters named “serenity,” “recovery” and “energy.” After the night’s debacles, O’Hara could use vats of all three but opts instead for a six-pack of amber-tinted stress ...water called Amstel Light. At the counter, she adds two large coffees, then lugs her 3:00 a.m. supper to the car. She eats in the passenger seat with the window rolled down. The sandwich, cold air and coffees will help keep her working. The beers are for later to sleep.
