This is a bit of a fantasy angle, I guess – Hanna can’t get high anymore. But it describes the problem. As Lana Del Rey sings in her latest album, “So I moved to California, but it’s just a state of mind / It turns out everywhere you go, you take yourself, that’s not a lie”. This is Hanna’s central conflict from here on out. |
New Year’s Eve, indeed. I’m as tired as a regular Hanna.
"Something in me couldn't be sustained" is such a powerful phrase. It stuck with me hard enough the first time you posted this page that I felt the reverberations rereading it now.
Well that explains a lot (and was even foreshadowed). I guess diving into that animated painting ended her. What could top that? And without getting high Hanna has no meaning left in her life at all.
