“I knew that my eyes weren't reading, but I'd never let myself be convinced that I was pretending, and that I hadn't come in search of reading on an island, I was trying to ignore that God was giving me exactly what I'd ask for and that I– I was saying "no". I was pretending that I didn't notice that I'd constructed a whole hope for whatever was finally happening to me, but that there I was wearing glasses with the open book, as if I loved so much that I could only shout "no". But I also knew that if in that exact moment I didn't take up the calm thread of my previous life, then my balance would never return, and never would my things be recognized by me.”

“In one corner of the room are an array of small prints of the birds with gold foil laid painstakingly into individual feathers. This is not a room; it is a menagerie, and standing in the midst of it, I am one of its birds. Beside me at the door, Qamar is weeping, and I am trembling like a person in snow. One day, someone will try to explain us as they once tried to explain this, and they will not have the words.”
