One thing that I came to learn about myself as a writer in working on this book is that my writing is often about who is happening moreso than what is happening. That is, I love creating characters who feel very true-to-life but who are almost so specific as to be mysteries to themselves as they are to other people.

Additional quotes by Rakesh Satyal

I wanted to show the idea of loneliness in that light – that humor works in tandem with the joy to be found in self-examination.
