Grafted to grow
"In hatred as in love, we grow like the thing we brood upon. What we loathe, we graft into our very soul."
The Mask of Apollo (1966), by Mary Renault, novelist (1905-1983)
I don't really fancy the genre, but the two novels I read were certainly interesting. I recommend reading about her life first, the novels will make much more sense.
