Quotes by Thirii Myo Kyaw Myint  (?)

“The dream among her American friends, the few she made, was to find a Spanish boyfriend and a reason to stay. But really, she did not want to stay, despite all the benefits. She did not want to become a bitter expat, to take up smoking and lose her accent, even though she suspected that this was the only way she could ever become fully American. Only in a foreign country could she feel that she belonged to hers.”
Thirii Myo Kyaw Myint, Names for Light: A Family History

“Everyone inside stopped what they were doing and stared at the group she had entered with, stared at their relative wealth and privilege, their collective whiteness. She does not know if her companions even noticed. She felt ashamed for having entered the bar with them, for being one of them, and then felt ashamed for being ashamed of her friends and colleagues.”
Thirii Myo Kyaw Myint, Names for Light: A Family History

“In school, it was not the story of Eve and the serpent that captured her imagination, but the story of la serpiente emplumada, Quetzalcoatl, a deity for whom Cortés believed he was mistaken. She always hated that myth, which made Moctezuma out to be gullible and superstitious, deserving of his tragic fate, as Eve deserved her banishment from Eden. She could not conceive what it must have been like for the conquistadors, to believe that wherever you went, you were a god.”
