Sugar revealed her identity this week. I was unsure how I would feel about it; I figured I would probably not recognize the author's name, and would that feel like a letdown? If I knew it, would it feel like flipping to the end of the book?

Neither was true. Her name is apparently Cheryl Strayed, and her voice under her own name is just like Sugar. This is an essay she wrote on grief and sex. It's violent and beautiful; read at your own risk.

WHAT DOES IT mean to heal? To move on? To let go? Whatever it means, it is usually said and not done, and the people who talk about it the most have almost never had to do it.
