“I envied my mother’s childhood, the awe with which she’d turned to her country and the world, the confidence she’d had in her right to exist and bear children. The world and mothers alike, I knew, had lost a little freshness.” (from “Yesterday’s Whales”)
Birds of a Lesser Paradise by Megan Mayhew Bergman (Scribner, March 2012)
