Let the discussion begin! Spring, I read 'A New Man' yesterday and though I've loved all the others, this analysis resonated with me more completely. I'm copying your opening paragraph here, because its so terrible and true. 'Oh, the things we do to one another – the way we entangle ourselves, get all twisted up in each other as we struggle for contact and independence at the same time – it’s pathetic, isn’t it? It’s never right, it’s never enough, so we advance on each other, we retreat, we tease, we engage in earnest, we shock, we bore, we crowd each other, we abandon each other, we love, we hate, we give birth, we kill. We can’t get enough of each other, we can’t feel alive without each other, we always want more and then more and then more – and we want nothing to do with one another; we seek out isolation always, like dying elephants resolved to leave the herd. ' Thank you for your clear voice Spring, even though the song made me cry. |

I was really taken by the Giles/Buffy & Giles/Spike aspects of it. |
