Kaye Gibbons Quote

Mothers smell blood before the wound is given. We see the rent place on the child's arm before the arrow strikes.


On the Occasion of My Last Afternoon (ed. Putnam Publishing Group, 1998)


Mothers smell blood before the wound is given. We see the rent place on the child's arm before the arrow strikes.

Mothers smell blood before the wound is given. We see the rent place on the child's arm before the arrow strikes.

Mothers smell blood before the wound is given. We see the rent place on the child's arm before the arrow strikes.

Mothers smell blood before the wound is given. We see the rent place on the child's arm before the arrow strikes.
