How It All Goes Down

The Wedding Reception was So Extraordinary! or The End of the Moment that Never Ends, 1941

  • Back to the wedding reception—again—at the moment where Safran pops his cork in the wine cellar with Zosha's sister.
  • As Zosha's father gives a toast, Safran notices that the Gypsy girl is sitting next to him at the table.
  • She never speaks to him, but she slips him a note: "Change" (30.18).
  • Great, that's not creepy.
