• It was really just the name that inspired me: Rainsboro. It's located near Rocky Fork State Park. I have probably driven through that little place a thousand times, but, in that weird way my mind works sometimes, one particular evening it just hit me the right way, I guess. Created a mood more than anything else. And then I started thinking about a woman and her young son who end up there.

• Cuando mis padres fueron liberados, cuatro años antes de que yo naciera, se encontraron con que el mundo ordinario fuera del campo había sido erradicado. Ya no había comida sencilla, ninguna cosa era menos que extraordinaria: un tenedor, un colchón, una camisa limpia, un libro. Por no hablar de las cosas que pueden hacer llorar: una naranja, carne y verduras, agua caliente. No había ordinariez a la que volver, ningún refugio contra la potencia cegadora de las cosas, una manzana gritando su dulce zumo.

• Su corazón latía cada vez más rápido a medida que el rostro blanco de Daisy se acercaba al suyo. Sabía que cuando besara a aquella muchacha, y uniera para siempre sus visiones inconfesables a su aliento perecedero, su mente no volvería a retozar como la mente de Dios. Así que esperó, escuchando un momento más el diapasón que había sido pulsado sobre una estrella. Entonces la besó. Al contacto de sus labios, ella floreció como una flor y la encarnación se completó.
