From Her Body and Other Parties: Stories, by Carmen Maria Machado
A CAVALCADE
"I ordered a cavalcade of oysters. Most of them had been cut the way they were suppsed to be, and they slipped down as easily as water, like the ocean, like nothing at all, but one fought me: anchored to its shell, a stubborn hinge of flesh."
