She had never wanted anything as much as she wanted to help excavate the buried ancient village that had only recently been discovered on the African coast of the Red Sea. She had paid her dues, earned the fight to work on the Ouosalla dig in east Africa it was the biggest new archaeological find in decades, and her mouth literally watered at the thought of being involved. She had a good view of the city, and normally she loved it, both the pastels of daytime and the glowing neons of night, but she was too angry right then to even see it.

What is a person, if not the marks they leave behind? She has learned to step between the thorny weeds, but there are some cuts that cannot be avoided-a memory, a photograph, a name. She lied, but only because she can't say her real name-one of the vicious little details tucked like nettles in the grass. The boy is still asleep, and she watches the slow rise and fall of his shoulders, the place where his dark hair curls against the nape of his neck, the scar along his ribs. It isn't his fault-it is never their faults. She lies there, perfectly still, tries to hold time like a breath in her chest as if she can keep the clock from ticking forward, keep the boy beside her from waking, keep the memory of their night alive through sheer force of will. ![]() 5/27/2023 0 Comments Sheryl sandberg book![]() ![]() Sandberg was born in 1969 in Washington, D.C., to a Jewish family, the daughter of Adele (née Einhorn) and Joel Sandberg, and the oldest of three children.
