Naming my favorite books feels like naming a favorite child - impossible.

I grew up doing theatre and spent a long time as a playwright. I still think very visually when I write.

So much of the literature we had to read for high school English class was filled with victimized, tragic, symbolic women who spurred the plot forward with their inevitable shunning/death/shunning-followed-by-pregnancy-followed-by-death timelines.
