"The main thing is knowing that it's a lifeline to culture…The mobile libraries also serve as a lifeline to other people. In an increasingly distant, digital age, the service has made a difference in declining communities whose residents seek personal contact. Without the mobile libraries, some residents would be more than an hour's drive from their nearest library branch. Others, even if living less than a mile away, would still be unable to visit because of physical hardships. (NPR )”

“I don’t think it has to be that dramatic. You aren’t star crossed lovers or anything like that.”

The phrase stirred something in the back of James’ head.

“Where have I heard that before?”

She cocked her head slightly to the side, evidently amused by him.

“Did you ever read Romeo and Juliet?”

Oh come on.

He rolled his eyes.

“I’ve heard of it.”

She laughed at him.

“Oh really? Well, that’s where it’s from. And you aren’t in that story.”

“He turned the pages idly, now staring at the photos of the ballet itself, the members of the company twisted elegantly, as if in mid-flight.

A duel, a party, Juliet standing at the balcony, and…

Romeo on his knees in front of the friar, eyes closed, hands raised, arched back in a long line, thrown into sharp relief by a stark white spotlight that illuminated his face.

Regulus Black.”
-En Avant
