Lidia鈥檚 Quotes

“How did she get here, I mean how did she really get here, what were the choices, what鈥檚 a past鈥搒he takes a long drink鈥搘hat is psychological development? Is it as fucking Freudian as it sounds? She sighs the big sigh of twenty-six, wondering if we are all trapped inside identity, genetics, and narrative鈥搒ome whacked-out Kafka god handwriting our unbearable little life stories. Then she thinks the American-artist thought, the rough-and-tumble kind: how can I use this?”
― Lidia Yuknavitch, The Small Backs of Children
