“Of course, old habits were like phoenixes—rising again and again—and the next thing she knew, they were locked together like snarling beasts.

“Hannah shook her head, exasperated. She did that a lot, I noticed. A fierce energy infused her every long-limbed movement, led her easily to frustration. Emmeline, by contrast, had the calculated posture of a doll come to life. Their features, similar when considered individually- two neat noses, two pairs of intense blue eyes, two pretty mouths- manifested themselves uniquely on each girl's face. Where Hannah gave the impression of a fairy queen- passionate, mysterious, compelling- Emmeline's was a more accessible beauty. Though still a child, there was something in the way her lips parted in repose that reminded me of a glamour photograph I had once seen when it fell from the pedlar's pocket.”

“But almost no one speaks of building up girls - these delicate soufflé-nibbling creatures who ought to be able to survive on air and compliments. Instead, a great focus is placed on building up their brothers, stoking them with dangerous delusions about how much food they need. In the current food environment, the overfeeding of boys is no more helpful than the underfeeding of girls.”

“Do you want me to leave?' Lexie shook her head. 'Stay,' she said. 'It's fine. I'm fine. Just stay.' After a moment, Izzy slid a square piece of paper across the table, and Lexie took it and began to follow her sister's lead: folding over, back, to the center, out, until at last she took hold of the corners and pulled and a crane bloomed like a pale flower in her hands.”

“La tan admirada hermosura de Ingel y su sonrisa celestial habían empezado a resplandecer después de conocerlo con una fuerza que no era de este mundo, de un modo aún más cegador. Alumbraba todo el jardín de la casa incluso en las noches lluviosas y llenaba la alcoba donde dormían las hermanas, a tal punto que a Aliide le faltaba el aire y por las noches se despertaba jadeante y se precipitaba tambaleándose a abrir la puerta en busca de oxígeno.”
