Cherie Dimaline
“We as humans forgot our specific place and spread into every place instead. As if we were removed from consequence. As if we were untouchable. We couldn’t even imagine the Earth retaliating. And then it did.”
Cherie Dimaline, Hunting by Stars

Cherie Dimaline
“And I couldn’t get Sunny out of my head, the way her hand had gone limp in mine before it was yanked free with the quick violence only a badge could bring, knowing there were no arguments to be had unless you wanted things to get even worse.”
Cherie Dimaline, Hunting by Stars

Adam Kay
“My first, a son, was a natural birth. The pain was a shock. I couldn’t understand how I could be in that much pain but still be alive. I screamed at the midwife, Cynthia, ‘GET ME AN EPIDURAL OR A GUN.’ Happily, they were out of guns and Ahmed, a good-humoured anaesthetist, arrived, injected some manners into me and I apologised to Cynthia.”
Adam Kay, Dear NHS: 100 Stories to Say Thank You

Cherie Dimaline
“I wondered if those tourists saw the truth of an abandoned place. That it was fuller than a mall, more bustling than an old freeway. Because the Earth didn’t stutter. It moved ahead, smooth and elegant, and uncoiled its fingers into every last place, hooking nails under crook and groove. Now so much of the country was abandoned, and we had never lived in a more crowded space.”
Cherie Dimaline, Hunting by Stars

Clare Leslie Hall
“What’s it like?’ ‘Depression?’ I nod, too full of the moment for words, too fearful of what I’m about to find out. ‘It’s like being underwater while the rest of the world rushes by.”
Clare Leslie Hall, Days You Were Mine
