「大聖堂」から、トムがなくなった妻アグネスを思い出す場面より。
Agnes had been with him for most of his adult life, and now
he had a constant sense of there being something missing.
While she was alive he had never thought that he was
particularly fortunate to have her, nor felt thankful for her;
but now that she was dead he missed her, and he felt
ashamed that he had taken her for granted.
なんかわかるような気がする。
空気や水のようなものとよくいうが、いなくなってはじめて存在価値に
気づくのかも。
