The thrill of the act had long passed, and he kneeled amid his work in a kind of busied torpor. As she had ruthlessly picked apart his life, from the sartorial incompetence to the pallid sense of ambition, so too would he pick apart all that lay before him, one meticulous deconstruction after another. By Thursday the rug’s individual fibres would be strewn across the floor, and the suitcases’ components would be filed alphabetically on the lawn. But there was one nagging doubt that scratched and rattled inside his otherwise tranquil cerebrum, and the tidy pamphlet hastily snatched from the wreckage would yield no solution: no matter what, she would always be his mother - Alex Bertram-Powell, http://rachisandbarb.blogspot.com
