“Everything I do is a love letter addressed to you.”
― Tayari Jones, An American Marriage

“This was the kind of home that was safely hidden from the eyes of those who could not afford to live this way. That's what wealth does for you, she thought. It gives you the means and the power to remain concealed from the world if you choose - or if you need to.”
― Liv Constantine, The Last Mrs. Parrish

“Mother, do you grieve?
Know that I will return to you. I will be a flutter in the leaves above where you sit, cooking ruti on the stove. I will be the stray cloud which shields you from the days of sun. I will be the thunder that wakes you before rain floods the room.
When you walk to the market, I will return to you as footprint on the soil. At night, when you close your eyes, I will appear as impress on the bed.”
― Megha Majumdar, A Burning

“Nothing is simple for a person like me, not even one hour on the train. My chest is a man's chest, and my breasts are made of rags. So what? Find me another woman in the whole city as truly woman as me.”
― Megha Majumdar, A Burning
