yes we are

i was looking through my archives and i came across this again. i did another search and this time i found its source.

the confessions of max tivoli.

i have never read it so i dunno how that little passage came to me, but it looks like a good book. the story seems inspired by benjamin button, but remember this was written in 2004, back when benjamin button was just a little-known short story.

here's the first paragraph of the book:

"we are each the love of someone's life.

i wanted to put that down in case i am discovered and unable to complete these pages, in case you become so disturbed by the facts of my confession that you throw it into the fire before i get to tell you of great love and murder. i would not blame you. so many things stand in the way of anyone ever hearing my story. there is a dead body to explain. a woman three times loved. a friend betrayed. and a boy long sought for. so i will get to the end first and tell you we are each the love of someone's life."
