Mary Gaitskill: Secretary

"Each cut, each scar, each burn a different mood or time. I told him what the first one was, I told him where the second one came from. I remembered them all. And for the first time in my life, I felt beautiful. Finally part of the earth. I touched the soil and he loved me back."

Closing scene from the film Secretary, an adaptation of the story by Gaitskill.
