“It took me a whole day to write those two paragraphs, and I think it's starting to deal with that concept of survivors reclaiming their own sense of self, I guess, just being comfortable with your own body, even after horrible things have happened to it, and existing in a body comfortably, sort of like the concept of flesh memories.”
