perfect way to kick off our horror month.
The trees hated me. Or maybe it was the wind. Or the frost in the air that tried to mimic the texture of my grandmother’s breath when she used to say my name in the dark—Irenka, a name I shed like old skin when I left Greyport, Mass behind. When I stopped being hers. When I let my throat fill with Cambridge vowels and university syllables. But the trees were watching me now, bending low and splitting open their own bark. I should not have come back.

"Juan Albizú had always been an industrious man. His shop, a narrow sliver of whitewashed stone wedged between the haberdasher and the baker’s wife’s miserable excuse for a confectionary, was a place of unimpeachable respectability."
