Quote preview background for Kristin Hannah
My skin has the crinkled appearance of wax paper that someone has tried to flatten and reuse. My eyes fail me often__n the darkness, when headlights flash, when rain falls. It is unnerving, this new unreliability in my vision. Perhaps that__ why I find myself looking backward. The past has a clarity I can no longer see in the present.
