They didn't know that her heart was perpetually on vacation, stuffed between the pages of Austen and Murakami. Yes, they loved her autumn smiles, her conversations, even the jazz ensembles of her clothes. But her heart was locked in the New York Public Library. The distance was far too great, the risk far too much. After all, this was the place where Paul Varjak told Holly he loved her and all she did was look at him.
