That's when I knew she was forever caught in her own undercurrent, bouncing from one deep swell to the next. She would never lift me out of the sea. She would never pause to fill her lungs with air. Soon the world would yank her chain of sadness against every shore, every rock, every glass-filled beach, leaving nothing but the broken hole of a drowned woman. Page 179
I absolutely loved Kali Fajardo-Anstine's short story collection. The collection of stories mostly take place in Saguarita, Colorado and focus on latina women of indigenous decent, mother/daughter dynamics, violence against women, MMIW, financial struggles, identity, the pressures and dangerous consequences of not falling in line to sociatal conventions and so much more.
