Emma Pattee
“How do I explain a home to you, Bean? We fill them with dirt and dust and dishes and cat hair. Spend all our time looking on big and small screens at other people’s homes, wishing they were ours. Drive to places like IKEA in hopes that our homes will look more like the homes on our screens.”
Emma Pattee, Tilt: A Novel

Marjan Kamali
“No matter where you go or how far you travel, when you are in a place of substance, the floor is covered with the rugs of our country. The artwork of our land. Which means really, in all these places, you are with the labor of Iranian women.”

But maybe that was just it: I hadn’t known him. There are times when that can be the strongest draw of all.”
Anne Tyler, Three Days in June
