Childhood does not end in one fell swoop, as we wished it would when we were children. It lingers, crouching silently in our adult, then wizened bodies, until one day, many years later, when we think that the heavy burden of bitterness and despair we've been shouldering has turned us irredeemably into adults, it reappears with the force and speed of a lightning bolt, wounding us with its freshness, its innocence, its unerring dose of naivety, but most all with the certainty that this really and truly is the last glimpse we shall have of it.
Guadalupe Nettel, from The Accidentals (tr. Rosalind Harvey)

Anne throughout Persuasion: stays out of the way so Wentworth can choose a wife that's not her
Anne: bears her pain in silence for months
Anne: distracts herself (by caring for little Charles, by focusing on the November beauty during the autumn walk, enjoying Lime's beauty and their new company) and puts Wentworth's happiness first
Anne: stays civil and polite to Wentworth, even when it's painful
Meanwhile Wentworth, a man of war, after two (2) bursts of jealousy: leaves the concert early and is so obviously jealous that Anne anxiously thinks it's crucial to dissolve said jealousy as fast as humanly possible

Still the greatest magazine cover of all time. Why are they framed in shadow. Why is the text so stark. Why is this being framed like the poster with the villains on it for a superhero movie. This summer: a new sexual identity emerges. The bisexuals will change the hierarchy of the DC Universe forever
