Evocative to the max. I had the pleasure of editing her reading for KQED, but, unfortunately, never got to meet her. My fiction professor saw me reading this book and said she had met Masha in New York so I asked, "What is she like?" and all she said was "She's beautiful" and I laughed 'cause a. I never asked what she looked like and b. Masha would have a field day with that response. I didn't have to ask my professor if she had read the book to know that she hadn't, but I asked anyway.

I don’t fuck him because promiscuity, in the larger cultural sense, really fucking bores me.

My porno is my fear of being upstaged by everyone. My porno is how I scan the past and look into it all the time.



[As well as many other brilliant things in this beautiful, compelling book.]
