Francesca Lia Block Quote

Max asked, 'Why death, do you think?''The Iroquois say that the world was too full, so the men and women got together, separately, to find an answer. The men came up with the idea of not having any more children. But the women refused to give up having babies. Death was their answer.'Max nodded. He took a deep breath. It felt like he hadn't breathed like that in month, maybe years.
