‘’I’m killing myself because you didn’t love me, because I didn’t love you. Because our ties were loose, I’m killing myself to tighten them. I leave you with an indelible stain.’’
The word "dilemma" is the only word I could recall. One's own dilemma caused by somebody else's dilemma. Dilemma pushes dilemma so that life moves on. The picture is so Auster. The people, the dialogue, the plot and even the room where Paul taps on his typewriter.
