“She said that true love was just like this - sweet in some parts, sour in others. She said that deep love was vast and pure, but that it also got hateful in some of its corners where the sunlight did not touch. She said that you could not love without hating. And that you most certainly could not hate a person without loving them first.”
Okwiri Oduor, Things They Lost
“My love for you is deep, but even then, it's not always so. Sometimes my love for you is lukewarm at best. And sometimes I feel nothing for you. Nothing at all. I search inside myself for that hot, scalding love and it's not there anymore.”
Okwiri Oduor, Things They Lost
“Mbiu, with a loneliness, a disquiet inside her, and beyond that, a swirling presence, something at once strange and familiar. A sadness”
Okwiri Oduor, Things They Lost
“Stop, Rosette wailed, her voice tremulous. Stop thinking about Things That Happened in the Past. Stop thinking about Things We Lost. I can't bear it”
