““That's all I got," Vonda sighs, and the apple is finished. She tosses the core across the room and our eyes follow the arc as it travels and lands with a moist plop in the empty wastebasket by the door. And then we just casually return to our own little stories. As if something acutely profound had not just happened.

It is my only working theory.””
