Bangkok Wakes to Rain
by Pitchaya Sudbanthad
"After awful things happen, she's found that a woman has to make herself appear inviolate, so that she can live the good life expected of her and be a productive, contributing member of the society. If she gives it her amicable face, maybe she'll also find herself loved, unconditionally if she's lucky, as her husband had loved her, as her son does, and still there'll be a lingering ache underneath, made more palpable as her years begin to wear thin. The more terrible memories manifest as more than an ache. She feels them alive and aflame within her, and she can't just abandon them to oblivion. She must tend to them. She feeds them with her heart."
