Jacqueline Harpman
“I felt as if this pain would never be appeased, that it had me in its grip for ever, that it would prevent me from devoting myself to anything else, and that I was allowing it to do so. I think that is what they call being consumed with remorse.”
Jacqueline Harpman, I Who Have Never Known Men

Kazuo Ishiguro
“There was something very special, but it wasn't inside Josie. It was inside those who loved her.”
Kazuo Ishiguro, Klara and the Sun

Hisham Matar
“This, I now know, is what is meant by grief, a word that sounds like something stolen, picked out of your pocket when you least expect it. It takes a long time to learn the meaning of a word, particularly a word like that, or perhaps all words, even ones as simple as “you” or “me.”
Hisham Matar, My Friends

Hisham Matar
“Doesn’t it make you shudder to think that the heart of the universe is so cold?”
Hisham Matar, My Friends

Hisham Matar
“She was older and all the more beautiful, had the weary tiredness of one who, in surrendering to her life, was ennobled by it.”
Hisham Matar, My Friends
