Arundhati Roy
“Small money is always more subversive.”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me

Patrick O'Brian
“I can and do dislike him intensely when he pins my king and a rook with his lurking knight,’ said Stephen,”
Patrick O'Brian, The Mauritius Command

“The present onslaught leaves no space for mourning, since mourning requires an afterwards, but only for repeated shock and the ebb and flow of grief. We who are not there, witnessing from afar, in what ways are we mutilating ourselves when we dissociate to cope? To remain human at this juncture is to remain in agony. Let us remain there: it is the more honest place from which to speak.”
Isabella Hammad, Recognising the Stranger: On Palestine and Narrative

Abir Mukherjee, A Rising Man

“They just got up in the morning, put on their clothes and began.”
Seamus O'Rourke, Standing in Gaps
