Uddrag
The structure in Russell’s commentary seems fluent and spontaneous, and it seems like he has written it straight from his heart.

Russell writes and gets around all his knowledge of Amy, from the beginning to her death. In the beginning he tells about how he almost avoided her

as he had overcome the addiction and had entered a new phase in his life, but when he heard about her work, heard her sing, and found out that they had a lot in common he opened up to a new friendship.
