So deep and moving. And now I’ve got With a Rebel yell, she cried More, More, More looping in my head.

Damn this messed up colonized world and thank you for sharing your truth. Every time you do that, it decolonizes it a bit.

This one cut so deep. As a woman of color, and now as a woman of color who is stepping into the stigma called 'aging', I feel closer to violence and death than ever before. I walk everyday with the gnawing sense that love is a fight and that there is nothing fortuitous about it. And yet Kundera's book is a favorite of mine, which makes me wonder - after reading your letter - whether it is precisely because it feels like such a beautifully written piece of fantasy to me.
