Blue Quotes

“The land seems boundless here. Life curled in, folded onto itself. Seen from here, the world is immense and small at the same time. All this green. These wetlands are, and have always been, imaginary fences. The war was over, people said. The girls had heard nothing, understood nothing about that war. Nazis and Allies meant nothing to them. The world hardly communicated at all with the province bleue, buried deep in a country mired forever in the Caribbean Sea, in misery. It was a world far from the world, a world you had to leave in order to live.”
― Emmelie Prophète, Blue
