Teaser Tuesday


Teaser Tuesday is hosted by MizB over at Should Be Reading. This is how it works:
Grab your current read
•Open to a random page
•Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
•BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers.

This weeks teaser comes from 


A Pale View of Hills by Kazuo Ishiguro


I crossed that ground regularly that summer to reach Sachiko's cottage, and indeed it was a loathsome journey; insects often caught in ones' hair, and there were grubs and midges visible amidst the cracked surface. I still remember those journeys vividly, and they - like those misgivings about motherhood, like Ogata-San's visit - serve today to bring a certain distinctness to that summer.

What's your teaser? Leave me a link, I'd love to know!
