Sunday Sentence: Andre Aciman

Inspired by Fobbit author David Abrams at The Quivering Pen, Sunday Sentence is, simply, the best sentence I've read this week, presented without comment. To wit:

...for all its rosy cheeks, the past always gives off that off-putting, musty scent of old pipes and mildewed rooms that haven't been aired in years.

-- Andre Aciman, Harvard Square (2013, W.W. Norton & Company)
