True this chapter has been a reckoning. Not only for the characters but the readers as well. Your instinct and beautiful writing leads us on such emotional highs. We were overdue for the lows of such a loss of Travers. I, too, have become so enraptured by each of these men that I can see them, get so involved with their moves, wants and desires. In true escapism, yes, I long for them. Thanks for reminding us of our humanity and for the world you have provided us to escape to. I am sure you will provide healing for us too.
