In desperate love with this story... Emma's fierce, combative vulnerability; Emily's wincing, tentative hope breeding courage and defiance; their starkly contrasted interactions with Didi, with the doctor, with the parents of the other children; how they know the ways in which they differ from each other yet cannot help but return to the same, willfully differentiated, space. I love how they profile each other, how they grapple for, and shield themselves with, insight even as they recoil from revelation. Desperate, desperate love.
