... to describe your own transgressions is to forgive yourself of them; to give voice, to confess your bad deeds, is also at once to forgive yourself, and so silence becomes the only form of self punishment. In Roseau by Jamaica Kincaid.

Fun so far, and forcibly striking me with the percentage of the stories which are narrated in the first person.

"The Eve of the Spirit Festival" by Lan Samantha Chang, talk about analyzing this story and you could have an entire 30 page essay on it. So magnificent.

My first read by Alice Adams. Oh is she so great. Everyone please read "Complicities," her short story that deals with anorexia, pedophilia and the wrongs of the human mind and soul. All in 6 pages. BEAUTIFUL!
