Shari Franke
“Today, the mere thought of sitting at a piano triggers some of my earliest and deepest anxieties, all tied to my mother. It's a shame how the most beautiful things, even music, can be ruined by the shadows of our past.”
Shari Franke, The House of My Mother: A Daughter's Quest for Freedom

Kathleen Glasgow
“My own body is my deepest enemy. It wants, it wants, it wants, and when it does not get, it cries and cries and I punish it.”
Kathleen Glasgow, Girl in Pieces
