Life, the Universe and Everything · 1982
She didn’t even programme any coordinates, she hadn’t the faintest idea where she was going, she just went – a random row of dots flowing through the Universe. “Anything,” she said to herself as she left, “is better than this.”
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
She leaves without choosing a destination or entering coordinates, and simply drifts away as a scatter of dots moving through space. Her parting thought is blunt and comic in its desperation: any place at all has to beat the situation she is leaving.
