" I was ashamed of having married so early, ashamed of how strange and
singular my marriage had been, ashamed of my guilt about it, ashamed
of the years of moral contortions I'd undergone on my way to divorce,
ashamed of my sexual inexperience, ashamed of what an outrageous and
judgmental mother I had, ashamed of being a bleeding and undefended
person instead of a tower of remoteness and command and intellect like
DeLillo or Pynchon, ashamed to be writing a book that seemed to want
to turn on the question of whether an outrageous midwestern mother
will get one last Christmas at home with her family."
