The Covenant of Water and Grief

“In this letter, her father is alive. That morning, in the morgue, he was not. Outside the morgue earlier that day, an angry crowd of relatives have clambered for news. In their contorted, tear-stained, uncomprehending faces, Mariamma had seen what her face must have looked like. The same claw had gathered them all like a tuft of grass in its grip. And the same sickle had chopped them off at the knees by robbing them of their loved ones.”

~Abraham Verghese: The Covenant of Water
