I was so sure this was different, the kind of story they made movies and books about, but in the end it was just a summer to a summer, a dizzying breath of honeysuckle and whiskey and candle smoke, inhaled, held, let go.

About This Quote

In the end, the summer is like a movie or book. We watched it and we read it and now we know what happened. But, the summer is only as good as the first breath of honeysuckle and whiskey and candle smoke. It’s only as good as the time and place and people and things that made up that first breath of summer.
