“Margo knew her mother was trying to pass down wisdom and skill, the dark of art of turning an ordinary person into a minor goddess by means of paint and fabric, but what she also heard was: Your face needs to be covered. To be loved, you should put this face over your face. It was even okay if it hurt, if it burned, if it accidentally tore out your eyelashes. 'Beauty is like free money,' Shyanne used to say as she did Margo's face.” — Rufi Thorpe
