Quotes by Ruthvika Rao  (?)

“In the morning she unpacked her trunk. There was a narrow closet behind the door, with just four shelves, and Vijaya was glad she packed very little, few clothes, almost no jewelry. From among all the jewelry she owned, the only piece she'd bought with her was a thin chain, hung with a heavy gold pendant the shape and size of a ripe kumquat.”
― Ruthvika Rao, The Fertile Earth: A Novel

“If not for the smell of sugar, she'd have missed Ranga. It was that scent, like fresh-cut sugarcane just put through a mill, that gave him away. It made Katya double back.”
