Variations on the Body Quotes

“Zenaida once told her that her father had pulled her and her sisters out after fourth grade, saying that women who knew too much ended up on the streets.

What she didn’t say was that when his poncho got caught in the wheel of his motorcycle, strangling him, his death had felt like a liberation.”
― Maria Ospina, Variations on the Body
