impressedFor anyone who loved "Flesh and Stone" - and perhaps even more, for those who didn't - may I recommend this absolutely brilliant essay by
sahiya ? And by "brilliant," I mean, the light from the bulb that went on over my head when I read it. She finds a theme in the story that was there, writ large and lovely, that I didn't see at all, because sometimes I'm that thick. And she writes about it beautifully. Go! Read! What are you waiting for?
