Jenny Offill Quotes

That Night, She Told Me The Old Story Again About The Woman Who Had Been Left Behind On A Desert Island By The Man She Loved. She Waited For Him To Return For Many Years, Surviving On Seaweed And Sand, Until At Last She Grew So Small She Could Fit Herself Inside A Bottle And Roll Into The Sea. Who Found The Bottle, I Wondered, But My Mother Said No One Knew What Happened To It Or Where The Woman Had Wanted To Go. A Fish Could Have Swallowed The Bottle, She Said, Or It Could Have Been Dashed Against Rocks. Other Possibilities: Sharks, Mermaids, Lonely Sailors At Sea.
