Believing one is defined by what turns out to be unrealistic. Realizing too late that you had what you needed, only to lose it. Seeing ourselves defined by our past and unable or unwilling to move beyond it.
Individual perceptions are reinforced by society or government. Each person is a member of at least 2 officially sanctioned minority groups. Each told who we are by other people or by circumstance out of our control. These do not define or prove our existence
I enjoyed The Year of the Monster. The prose is fresh and immediate Shallow or substantial, each character is true. We have all known them. Definitely worth reading.
‘’Social isolation. A need to be acknowledged, validated by
someone. She sympathizes with the need to exist more than she ever has before, to feel like the
insides matter. It's getting harder these days.
And, after all, the consummation of the Hollywood Dream is achieving existence. Simulated or
otherwise. But mostly simulated.’’
From ‘Deleted Scenes’ ( )
