David Grossman, Her Body Knows

Terese Marie Mailhot
“I think self-esteem is a white invention to further separate one person from another. It asks people to assess their values and implies people have worth. It seems like identity capitalism.”
Terese Marie Mailhot, Heart Berries: A Memoir

John Banville
“There is something about gin, the tang in it of the deep wildwood, perhaps, that always makes me think of twilight and mists and dead maidens. Tonight it tinkled in my mouth like secret laughter.”
John Banville, The Book of Evidence

Akwaeke Emezi
“You are crying,” she said. It was only then that Osita noticed the tears slipping into his ears. It was evening and the light was leaving. “It’s raining,” he told her, slurring his words.
She laughed. “It’s not raining.”
“It’s raining inside me,” he said and a wave if darkness took over.”
Akwaeke Emezi, The Death of Vivek Oji

Juan Rulfo
“You've been dreaming lies again, Susana.”
Juan Rulfo, Pedro Páramo
