I'm just a sick guy, I'm really just a dirty guy.
finished my reread of The Jungle. Marija's path really affected me a lot more this time around. I guess the first time I read it I didn't really grasp what she had gone through in comparison to Jurgis, but reading the scenes at the beginning of the book with the wedding and her nonstop dancing juxtaposed with her loss of strength at the end was supremely heartbreaking to get through.
