Kate Atkinson
“Art was dangerous—it gave you ideas.”
― Kate Atkinson, Shine, Pamela! Shine!

Alka Joshi

Elsa Morante
“alone. A mixed-blood is seldom content in company: there’s always something that casts a shadow on him, but in reality it’s he who casts a shadow, like the thief and the treasure, which cast a shadow on one another.”

― Alka Joshi, The Henna Artist
