Favourite quotes:
"A dying man does not feel obligated to observe social norms. He needs no one's permission to take what he needs."
 
"Looking into Cyrus's eyes, Perveen felt as if she were sinking into something deeper than water."
 
 
"She had travelled to Bandra fearful that Cyrus might take liberties. Now she reveled in them. She was taking her own liberties with him. Was this liberation? ... Cyrus was daring her to follow her heart-- to venture on her own journey just as their ancestors had, risking it all for a golden dream."  
 
 
"Perveen stared at her mother-in-law's loom and thought about the unseen threads that had spun around her, creating an unbreakable trap."
