A Truck Stop Rainbows
I have chosen to write a literary analysis about a book called Truck Stop Rainbows written by Iva Pekarkova in 1989.

I have watched the cocoon splitting open within myself--and what crawls out of it? A hideous, scowling death's-head moth, haughty and ostentatious, who laboriously inflates herself and spreads her wings. (200)
