Pаssаge Explicаtiоn 1: "Dоn't be lоng," said the woman. She carried two regulars to go and theman peeled his cigarette pack as they left. "It's about St. Bonny's and Maggie." "Oh, please." "Listen to me. I really did think she was black. I didn't make that up. Ireally thought so. But now I can't be sure. I just remember her as old, soold. And because she couldn't talk- well, you know, I thought she wascrazy. She'd been brought up in an institution like my mother was and like Ithought I would be too. And you were right.

Roberta lifted herhands from the tabletop and covered her face with her palms. When shetook them away she really was crying. "Oh shit, Twyla. Shit, shit, shit. Whatthe hell happened to Maggie?"
