It was a childhood in perfect balance, so I'm wondering what is was that came along and changed everything. It wasn't just one thing. There's rarely a sole cause of the separation of lives. It's a sequence of events, an inexorable chain reaction where each small link is fundamental, like a snake of upended dominoes. And I've been thinking the very first one, the one you push to start it all off, must have been when Vivi slipped off our bell tower and nearly died, fifty-nine years ago. --- from book's back cover
