Setting: The first academy building “There was nothing to distract me as I made my way across a wide yard, called the Far Common’s ,and up to a building as red brick and balanced as the other major buildings, but with a large cupola and a bell and a clock and Latin over the doorway—the First Academy Building”(11)
“I went along; I never missed a meeting. At that time it would never have occurred to me to say, ‘I don’t feel like it tonight,’ which was the plain truth every night”(34)
“We met every night because Finny’s life was ruled by inspiration and anarchy, and so he prized a set of rules. His own, not those imposed on him by other people, such as the faculty of the Devon School” (34)
I should have told him then that he was my best friend also and rounded off what he had said. I started to; I nearly did. But something held me back. Perhaps I was stopped by that level of feeling, deeper than thought, which contains the truth.(32)
Thank you for joining me
( technically the whole book after the first few pages is a flash back)
