“The body is an organ of memory, holding traces of all our experiences. The land, too, carries the burden of all its changes. To truly see and understand a landscape is to see its depth as well as its smooth surfaces, its beauty and its scars.”
Kristen Iversen, Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats

Kristen Iversen
“My family never talks about feelings, and we certainly never talk about plutonium. It's hard to take something seriously if you can't see it, smell it, touch it, or feel it. Plutonium is a cosmic trick. The invisible enemy, the merry prankster. Can it hurt you or not? None of us know.”
Kristen Iversen, Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats

Kristen Iversen
“His shirt is rumpled. His fingers, long and slender, are stained yellow at the tips from smoking. His mind is always on something else. My mind is busy, too, reading every cue and signal, keeping track of all the things that cannot be discussed, that must not be remembered, that have to be erased.”
Kristen Iversen, Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats

“Plutonium is the darling and the demon of the nuclear age.”
Kristen Iversen, Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats

Kristen Iversen
“Blue water extends in rows of gentle ripples to a thin line of barely visible cottonwoods on the far side. The wind dies to a whisper and it's quiet, almost perfectly still except for the snap of grasshoppers leaping from the weeds. To the west the mountains rise suddenly, almost violently from the sandy brown of the plains, layered silhouettes of blue and green and gray rising to a turquoise sky. My heart is filled with the beauty of it all.”
Kristen Iversen, Full Body Burden: Growing Up in the Nuclear Shadow of Rocky Flats
