Rebecca West

Eleanor Roosevelt

Kazuo Ishiguro
“As a writer, I'm more interested in what people tell themselves happened rather than what actually happened”
Kazuo Ishiguro

Marlon James
“I hate when a man feels I’m obligated to disclose my marital status to somebody I don’t even know. Even this bullshit about status itself as if married and spinster are the only two choices for defining myself. Or because I’m a woman I’m supposed to have a status at all.”
Marlon James, A Brief History of Seven Killings
