The Less United States of Kudera: "There weren't many choices for my birth mother, when she was pregnant with me, unmarried, in 1959, in that small town. She could have used a knitting needle or rat poison and tried to end it herself. She might have run away to an anonymous town where nobody knew her and passed herself off as a widow with a child. But that would have meant tearing herself away from her family, her community, and everything she knew. Instead, she bought a girdle She ate like a bird. She did what she could do to ensure that I would be as small as possible."
