But what I thought, and what I still think, and always will, is that she saw me. Nobody else has ever seen me - me, Jenny Gluckstein - like that. Not my parents, not Julian, not even Meena. Love is one thing - recognition is something else.

In Peter S. Beagle's novel "Tamsin," the character Jenny Gluckstein reflects on a profound experience of being truly seen by another person. She emphasizes that this sense of recognition is rare and deeply meaningful, contrasting it with the more common expression of love that she has received from those in her life, including her parents and friends. Jenny feels that no one has understood her essence as fully as Tamsin does.
