The ‘sloshing red liquid’ and ‘fingers running across velvet’ preserve the connection between language and resonance, as both are necessary in crafting elegant and rich stories. Stories such as Roney’s; ones that make us wonder, just for a moment, what it might feel like to taste another artist’s talent, in all its salty sourness, even when cut with whiskey. Wonderful writing.
