“Morals create a labyrinth of rules geared toward blaming the victim”
Maria Adelmann, How to Be Eaten

“What I want, desperately, is for someone to sit next to me for a moment and hold my hand and say one kind thing I didn’t know was true.”
Maria Adelmann, Girls of a Certain Age

“But something changes after tragedy,” she says. “It’s like you’ve spent your whole life putting one foot in front of the other, knowing the ground would always be there to meet you, and then suddenly, one day… it isn’t. The bottom has dropped out. The unbelievable happens and you just… fall.”
Maria Adelmann, How to Be Eaten
