My daughter just disowned me ::grin:: Of course it's hippo, not armadillo! Duh! It's heartbreaking, that ending. The pathos, the circularity of theme, the essential loneliness that pervades society as one person is always cast as an outsider...
"And she just doesn't know; should she stay, should she go?
But YES! the hippopotamus.
(But not the armadillo)."
Beautiful. And great idea on the books as cards; I'm trying to make everyone send me e cards; no waste, free and the interactive ones are hilarious.
