Excerpt from PELICAN REACH: The feelings flooding me arrive with the force of the tidal flow into the river below. I flounder in an attempt to find the right words to serve these emotions. Finally, all I come up with is . . . I am Frida Kahlo. And when I say this, I say it three more times, once for each of us, and in each case, it’s a ringing truth.
