"Play It As It Lays"
Joan Didion

"So they suggested that I set down the facts, and the facts are these: My name is Maria Wyeth. That is pronounced Mar-eye-ah, to get it straight at the outset. Some people here call me "Mrs. Lang", but I never did. Age, thirty-one. Divorced. One daughter, age four... From my mother I inherited my looks and a tendency to migraine. From my father I inherited an optimism which did not leave me until recently."
