• Joe and his little brother reunited at their old apartment flat, when Joe leaves, he kisses Thomas
• "In the immemorial style of young men under pressure, they decided to lie down for a while and waste time."
• "As they turned the landing to the top floor, a strand of her hair caught in the corner of his mouth, and for an instant he crunched it between his teeth."

Loved the book. I could not put down the pre-war section of the story, incredibly fun. A little long-winded at times, but the prose was very charming.

One of my favorite books to date. Had some of my favorite sentences.
