“And everyone on earth knows if you have the respect of a cat it means your soul is worth being around.”
Kira Jane Buxton, Hollow Kingdom
tags: cats

“I cannot recommend this to you enough: find something that you believe in, right down deep in the depths of your silvery plumage, and then throw your heart at it, blood and valves and veins and all. Because I did this, the world, though brambled and frothing at the mouth, looked more vibrant; blues were bluer, and even the fetid puddles that collected under rusting cars tasted as sweet as summer wine.”
Kira Jane Buxton, Hollow Kingdom

“Big Jim’s eyeball fell out. Like, fell the fuck out of his head. It rolled onto the grass, and to be honest, Big Jim and I were both taken aback.”
Kira Jane Buxton, Hollow Kingdom
