“A little slower, sweetheart. Cape Cod is freezing over.”

“Cape Cod is the bared and bended arm of Massachusetts. The shoulder is at Buzzard's Bay; the elbow at Cape Mallebarre; the wrist at Truro; and the sandy fist at Provincetown.”

“The best part about a superhero’s cape is it doubles as a blanket when your nemesis uses his freeze gun on you.”

“ohmygod. did all hell just freeze over?”

“I reveled in the smallness, the coziness of an upstairs bedroom in a traditional American Cape Cod house the half-floor that forces you to duck, to feel small and naive again, ready for anything, dying for love, your body a chimney filled with odd, black smoke. These square, squat, awkward rooms are like a fifty-square-foot paean to teenage-hood, to ripeness, to the first and last taste of youth.”

“when hell freezes over pigs fly and a cow jump over the moon amma like u”
