Amy Bloom
“You are imperfect, permanently and inevitably flawed. And you are beautiful.”

Lucia Perillo
“For what might happen if we lift
the codicils on belching?
If sex were permitted in the shopping malls? If people

from Don Giovanni, loudly and out of tune, waiting in line

Claudia Rankine, Citizen: An American Lyric
