“This is the wonder of names. Like the press of a footprint in the snow: proof that someone has been there.”
Aislinn Hunter, The World Before Us

“This is why we have to stay awake, be vigilant: we need to believe that we, like the museum objects around us, bear time with equal complexity, that eventually we might discover who we have been, what purpose we serve and what use we might one day be.”
Aislinn Hunter, The World Before Us: A Novel

“She kisses him because he is a good kisser, because he is sweet, because for the last hour she has only been here; and because he is a gentleman who wants to bring her another blanket that will smell of dust and old straw, who paid for their drinks with the only ten-pound note left in a wallet that had a strip of Velcro on it.”
Aislinn Hunter, The World Before Us: A Novel
