Henning Mankell
“The stories I create are never as awful as reality.”
Henning Mankell

“In writing this book, I have come to feel like a kind of immigrant in my own life, inhabiting a world of reflections and images of people I can't fully know, some of whom are dead, and I see now that my life has been shaped by this network, in ways I didn't always perceive.”
Zachary Lazar, I Pity the Poor Immigrant

Kim Echlin
“Our disappeared were everywhere, irresistible, in waking, in sleeping, a reason for violence, a reason for forgiveness, destroying the peace we tried to possess, creeping between us as we dreamed, leaving us haunted by the knowledge that history is not redeemed by either peace or war but only fingered to shreds and left to our children.”
Kim Echlin, The Disappeared

Anthony Marra
“We wear clothes, and speak, and create civilizations, and believe we are more than wolves. But inside us there is a word we cannot pronounce and that is who we are.”
Anthony Marra, A Constellation of Vital Phenomena

Shyam Selvadurai
“She is just a woman who life has made different. This is her strange way of trying to love you.”
Shyam Selvadurai, The Hungry Ghosts
