Victoria   Goddard
“He was not an artist of anything but the hidden intricacies underlying government bureaucracy, and no one else actually cared whether those were beautiful or not.”
Victoria Goddard, The Hands of the Emperor

Susanna Clarke
“Perhaps even people you like and admire immensely can make you see the World in ways you would rather not.”
Susanna Clarke, Piranesi

Stuart Turton
“How lost do you have to be to let the devil lead you home?”
Stuart Turton, The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

Matthew Desmond
“Let’s call it the scarcity diversion. Here’s the playbook. First, allow elites to hoard a resource like money or land. Second, pretend that arrangement is natural, unavoidable—or better yet, ignore it altogether. Third, attempt to address social problems caused by the resource hoarding only with the scarce resources left over. So instead of making the rich pay all their taxes, for instance, design a welfare state around the paltry budget you are left with when they don’t. Fourth, fail. Fail to drive down the poverty rate. Fail to build more affordable housing. Fifth, claim this is the best we can do. Preface your comments by saying, “In a world of scarce resources…” Blame government programs. Blame capitalism. Blame the other political party. Blame immigrants. Blame anyone you can except those who most deserve it. “Gaslighting” is not too strong a phrase to describe such pretense.”
Matthew Desmond, Poverty, by America

Stuart Turton
“So many memories and secrets, so many burdens. Every life has such weight. I don’t know how anybody carries even one.”
Stuart Turton, The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
