Rather a shock
i.m. Alan Rickman (1947-2016) to think it’s been 25 years since Truly Madly Deeply 1991 my sister died or rather killed herself so hungry ghosts seemed documentary realism to me living by Lake Pupuke with its gigantic eels and those students next door who had to pump up the stereo to psych themselves into going out every evening 1991 an unhappy time as Rickman said roles win Oscars actors don’t that swing inscribed for Alice who used to play here that makes the other parents hold onto their kids so tight as if death were another infection they might pick up (15/1/16-7/5/17)
