Sunday Sentence

Every weekend I participate in David Abrams’s “#SundaySentence” project, sharing the best sentence I’ve read during the past week, “out of context and without commentary.”

Ruined.

Yes, I’ve read this before, many times. But I reread it this week because I was teaching it. And as my students noted, this is a powerful line.
