Loneliness i began to realise was a populated place : a city in itself. And when one inhabits a city, even a city as rigorously and logically constructed as Manhattan, one starts by getting lost. Over time you begin to develop a mental map, a collection of favoured destinations and preferred routes, a labyrinth no other person could precisely duplicate or reproduce.
