excerpt

"Boats are female for Walter, as are busted car engines and broken lamps and radios - items of any kind that can be fiddled with by men adroit with gadgetry, and restored to a condition as good as new. Why did I find this reassuring? Perhaps I believe, in some childish, faith-filled corner of myself, that Walter might yet take out his pliers and his ratchet set and do the same for me." - The Blind Assasin, Margaret Atwood.
