Lawrence Durrel | Pain is Beauty

"It's a sort of scarification, like wounds the aborigines keep open on their bodies, rubbing irritants into them, reopening them until the resulting ornament is something so beautiful it makes the whole tribe envious." (92)
Lawrence Durrel, The Black Book in a letter dated 4.30 from my best friend gabe.
