My parents owned a cleaning service, and Wednesday nights my brothers and I would help them scour an already-sterile doctor's office. On breaks—when my mother would smoke—I'd pry any random book from the doctor's shelves and sit myself down on his beautiful leather couch. I was maybe ten, poring over anatomically correct models, reading about sexual malfunction. It thrilled me.
