Susan Abulhawa
“It amazed me to see how quickly they got comfortable in the new apartment and settled into a routine, as if their lives had simply been excised and replaced elsewhere, intact, with just a dusting of grief they shook off before returning to the business of living. Maybe it was easier because the trauma of forced displacement was already well-known to them, and they understood how idleness and purposelessness could dull the mind, droop the eyelids, and seep too much sleep and despair into the day. They were experienced refugees, better equipped to handle recurring generational trauma.”
Susan Abulhawa, Against the Loveless World

Susan Abulhawa
“I wanted to describe to him how the emotional intimacy growing between us was shattering my heart in the most life-affirming ways, but I didn’t have the right words, except to say that I loved him, which wasn’t nearly enough. We spent that night, and every night together after, in a closeness I had never known, or even thought possible with another person. I was happy. Truly content. Drifting to sleep in Bilal’s arms, I thought about the hills beyond the terrace. Soon wild plum, peach, pear, fig, medlar, mulberry, date, and almond trees would bloom.”
Susan Abulhawa, Against the Loveless World

Brandon Sanderson
“Sometimes a hypocrite is nothing more than a man in the process of changing.”
Brandon Sanderson, Oathbringer

Abbi Waxman
“Biology is not destiny. And love is not proportionate to shared DNA.”
Abbi Waxman, The Bookish Life of Nina Hill

Susan Abulhawa
“I colonized the colonizer’s space of authority. I made myself free in chains and held that courtroom captive to my freedom.”
Susan Abulhawa, Against the Loveless World
