“I have been hiding. I have called it waiting so
far. But waiting is really hiding. Some days I worry that I
will die in hiding. That I will go, not even having lived the
glorious richness of an ordinary life filled with routines.”
― What We Know About Her

― What We Know About Her
“Why had I never asked the women in my family how and if they loved? We didn’t talk to each other about love, come to think of it, ever. We lived as if love had nothing to do with us, all of us, daughters, wives, aunts, grandmothers and grandaunts.”

“Everyone in the city remembers the day the floodwater drained out, differently. Some were relieved, some were still in shock, some continued to look for loved ones, while others came home
to devastation. But for almost all of us it was heartbreak. The city wore its defeat for days and nights on end. For a week after the floods, on the footpaths outside most homes were stinking piles
of mattresses, pillows, quilts, cushions, straw mats, bedsheets and swollen rotting wood and food grains, and cars left open, even as the sun came down hard on us, making a mockery of it all.”
