Canadian Quotes: Lindsay Wong

 On July 22nd, we celebrate Lindsay Wong!

I have a tendency to find myself in dysfunctional households.

Perhaps I wear its scent, like a high-end perfume, imprinted on my pores. Damage must be an obscene homing beacon. 

- from 'Sinking Houses' in Tell Me Pleasant Things about Immortality: Stories by Lindsay Wong 

About this series

Every day this July, the yak occidental is posting a quote from a book by a Canadian writer to celebrate Canada Day on July 1st. Celebrating Canada is complex, and we must remember the violent and genocidal history our country is founded upon.
