>>7286171The book I'm working on. This isn't the central point of the book, but there is a beautiful young female character who several of the male characters consider unattainable. In reality she doesn't have exceptionally high standards or some sort of vendetta against men/relationships, and the reason she doesn't get with anyone is entirely circumstantial.
In The Road, the mans' wife is unattainable because she doesn't want to live in the world he's ready to endure, even though they loved each other.
Women try and fail to possess Slothrop throughout Gravity's Rainbow, and Roger Mexico never feels he has fully obtained Jessica for his own.
