Excerpt from Beloved

The sexual energy here among some of the faculty has
affected me. I won't be the object of desire again. I'll
never have another first kiss. What is the artifice of
relationship? Do we trick ourselves into thinking one
will last over another, that invisible boundaries will
keep us from falling in love with someone else? I have
crushes on beautiful men and wonder if telling you is
the thing to do.
"Every amorous episode can be, of course, endowed
with a meaning," but can every episode be endowed
amorous?
