There, in a corner behind a dresser, she would sit or lie on her trunk and carry on with her dying until spring.

Men are the reason I can't have nice things

[pasdetrois]

Dense forest. You wander along without a path. Only pine trees and sky—no one else in the world. And suddenly, with all your might, you let yourself go. At the top of your voice, you let out a cry of such wild, primal joy that for hours afterward all you can do is laugh and shake.

Teffi, from “Volya” in Other Worlds: Peasants, Pilgrims, Spirits, Saints (tr. Robert Chandler, Elizabeth Chandler, and Maria Evans)
