Quote from this book "He takes a seat beside me on the 151 bus. Like a camera with high-speed film, I take one sidelong glance and capture the totality of him. Jet-black hair, almost blue, in a razor cut that makes it look like sculpted slate. Luminous, unblemished skin - the kind of skin that never nicks from shaving. Cheekbones clear up to his temples. (All right, I snuck a longer look for that.) Dress any ancient statue of Apollo or Antinous in an Italian suit (I bend down to scratch my ankle and steal a corroborating glance - definitely Italian) and this is what you'd get."
