Manju Kapur
“There was no aphrodisiac more powerful than talking, no seduction more effective than curiosity.”
Manju Kapur

Caroline Kaufman
“It's okay if some things
are always out of reach.
If you could carry all the stars
in the palm of your hand,

Caroline Kaufman, Light Filters in: Poems

Max Porter
“Moving on, as a concept, is for stupid people, because any sensible person knows grief is a long-term project. I refuse to rush. The pain that is thrust upon us let no man slow or speed or fix.”
Max Porter, Grief Is the Thing with Feathers

Sigrid Nunez
“Once again I come upon his famous definition of love: two solitudes that protect and border and greet each other.”

Sigrid Nunez
“Consider rereading, how risky it is, especially when the book is one that you loved. Always the chance that it won't hold up, that you might, for whatever reason, not love it as much. When this happens, and to me it happens all the time (and more and more as I get older), the effect is so disheartening that I now open old favorites warily.”
Sigrid Nunez, The Friend
