Chigozie Obioma Quotes
Mother Vanished For Many Days. She Was, As I Would Find Out Later, In A Psychiatric Hospital, Tucked Away As If She Were A Dangerous Explosive Material. There Had Been A Cataclysmic Explosion Of Her Mind, And Her Perception Of The Known World Had Been Blasted Into Smithereens.Her Senses Became Imbued With Extraordinary Sensitivity So That To Her Ears The Sound Of The Clock In Her Ward
became Noisier Than The Din Of A Drilling Machine. The Sound Of A
rat Came To Her As The Peal Of Many Bells.
