Thrity Umrigar Quotes

None Of It Made Any Sense To Her - The Deceit, The Betrayal, The Sheer Chutzpah Of It. Like Something From A Movie. Who In Real Life Acted This Way? But Then She Remembered This Had Happened In India, And India Was Not Real Life. The Most Heartbreaking, Most Desperate, Most Bizarre Stories She Had Ever Heard All Came From India. Every Story Was Epic; Every Emotion Was Exaggerated; Every Action Was Melodramatic. Desperate Love, Mad Obsessions, Outbursts Of Rage, Bizarre Self Sacrifice, Self Immolation. Young Women Eat Rat Poison, Jumping Off Buildings, Or Burning Themselves Alive. Young Men Throwing Themselves Onto Railroad Tracks In The Path Of Oncoming Trains. And All This Self Destruction Over Issues That In The West Would Be Solved By A Simple Elopement Or Estrangement From One's Parents Or A Move To A Different City.
