...convinced this is the same person who told on me for committing the atrocious crime of using the knife assigned for the margarine container in the butter container. I don’t make faces and judge her when she eats her sweet and sour tofu, barbecue tofu, tofu casserole, and tofu stroganoff.

Writes Yan: "He can't bear to think of her spending her life as their neighbors do, with so many omissions; a life blank as if unlived." But by now, the police are cracking down on freeloaders like...
