The Crescent Moon Fox Quotes

“From then on the village was alive with activity, quietening down only in the summer, towards the midday, the apex of the heat, before coming to life again towards the end of the day. Those quiet hours were a nightmare for him. Too hot to sleep in. Too hot to read during. Too hot even to think. He would just lie itching on his mattress waiting for the cooler part of the day, like a prisoner waits for the jailer to let him out for exercise.”
― Metin Murat, The Crescent Moon Fox
