"The only thing you can rely on, in all towns, big and small alike, is that there will be broken people. It's nothing to do with the place; just life; it can beat us up. And if that happens, it's easy to find your way to a pub; bars can quickly become sad places. Someone who has nowhere else to go can grasp a glass a little too tightly; someone who's tired of falling can take refuge in the bottom of a bottle, seeing as you can't fall much further from there."
From Us Against You, Fredrik Backman
