The Girl with the Cut - out Face
When I was a child, I often looked through a family album. I remember asking my mother why there was a
36 cut out of a photo of a little girl. But it was
37 that my mother did not want to talk about it.
38 I looked at the album I saw that cut - out face and
39 about it. I figured there was something
40 . When I was grown up and had almost
41 about the photo, my mother must have realized I should know her
42 . She sat me down one day and said, “That cat - up photo is
43 your Aunt Anna. She has schizophrenia（精神分裂症）.”
But why did my mother never
44 this before? I still didn’t understand. “Because people are… were…
45 of having mental illness in the family” was the
46 . But I wanted to meet Aunt Anna, and I
47 .
My mother and I traveled to the house
48 Anna lived with an Italian family. Anna looked like a question mark on legs,
49 she had lovely, clear eyes and a gentle manner. I could see the
50 to my mother. “So nice to meet you,” she said to me. “Do you have a trunk （象鼻；行李箱）？”
Did she think that I was an elephant? No, she wanted to run
51 and hide in the trunk of my car. The family that
52 her said that she always wanted to
53 .
The last time I saw Anna she was placed in a smaller old - age facility in Brooklyn.
54 Aunt Anna, I’m not the least bit ashamed of you. I’m
55 about you now for many to see, with your sweet young face showing under a pretty bow.
And you finally found that escape you were seeking.
