Book cover for Stay with Me
The things that matter are inside me, locked up below my breast as though in a grave, a place of permanence, my coffin-like treasure chest.

Toni Morrison
“She lived out her days exploring her own thoughts and emotions, giving them full reign. Feeling no obligation to please anybody unless the pleasure pleased her.”
Toni Morrison, Sula

V.V. Ganeshananthan
“You must understand: There is no single day on which a war begins. The conflict will collect around you gradually, the way carrion birds assemble around the vulnerable, until there are so many predators that the object of their hunger is not even visible. You will not even be able to see yourself in the gathering crowd of those who would kill you.”
V.V. Ganeshananthan, Brotherless Night

Arundhati Roy
“When it came to me, Mrs Roy taught me how to think, then raged against my thoughts. She taught me to be free and raged against my freedom. She taught me to write and resented the author I became”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me

V.V. Ganeshananthan
“I had first come to appreciate precision as a form of love during my time as a zoology student, under Sir's tutelage, but since those days I had found it in other, unexpected places, I saw it in that room, in that girl. Her attention to each devasted mother was total, her eyes huge and focused.”
V.V. Ganeshananthan, Brotherless Night

Toni Morrison
“...[T]he oldest and most devastating pain there is: not the pain of childhood, but the remembrance of it.”
Toni Morrison, Sula
