ऑरेली शीहान की दिल थाम लेने वाली कहानियाँ अपनी सम्मोहक सतह से मीलों नीचे तक गहराई समेटे हुए हैं। उनमें एक ऐसी समझ, खूबसूरती और मौलिकता झलकती है जो समकालीन उपन्यासों में शायद ही कभी देखने को मिलती है।

अगर आप खुश नहीं हैं, अगर आप एमर्सन की तरह इस बात से खुश नहीं हैं कि सब कुछ बेहतर होने वाला है, तो आप बस एक तरह के अंधेरे में जीने वाले जानवर हैं।
If you're not happy, if you're not Emmersonianly happy and think everything's going to get better, then you're just sort of a dark animal.

इnsan मशहूर हो या न हो, आपको मेलविल जैसे लोगों की याद ज़रूर आएगी, जो अपनी ज़िंदगी के आखिरी तीस सालों तक पूरी तरह गुमनाम रहे। उन्होंने एक कस्टम हाउस में काम किया और इस अमेरिकी संस्कृति में एक आम इंसान की तरह चुपचाप काम पर आते-जाते रहे।
Whether one becomes famous or not, you have to be reminded of people like Melville, who for the last thirty years of his life was completely unknown. He worked in a customs house and walked off to work as an anonymous person in this American culture.

शायद थोड़े सरल तरीके से ही सही, किसी ने कहा था कि सारी अमेरिकी कविता या तो सँवरी हुई होती है या कच्ची, और अगर वह सँवरी हुई है, तो उसकी जड़ें पोए से जुड़ी हैं।
Someone said, in a simplistic way maybe, that all American poetry is either cooked or raw, and if it's cooked, it comes from Poe.

सालों पहले किसी ने मुझसे कहा था कि बासी हो चुके प्रेम संबंध से ज़्यादा बेजान और कुछ नहीं होता।
Someone once told me years ago that there was nothing so dead as a warmed-over love affair.

हम सब इस बात को समझते हैं कि अमेरिकी संस्कृति की एक बड़ी समस्या यह है कि यहाँ धीरे-धीरे मध्यम मार्ग या कोई बीच का रास्ता बचा ही नहीं है। या तो आप एक सेलिब्रिटी लेखक या कवि हैं, या फिर आपका कोई वजूद ही नहीं है।
I think we all recognize that one of the problems in American culture is that increasingly, there's no middle ground. That either you're a celebrity writer or a celebrity poet, or else you're nothing.

जब आप चर्चा से बाहर हो जाते हैं, यानी जब आपका बुरा वक्त चलता है, तो बात सिर्फ समीक्षकों की नहीं होती। संपादक और प्रकाशक भी आपको नहीं चाहते, आप बस गायब हो जाते हैं और इतिहास से ऐसे मिटा दिए जाते हैं जैसे पुराने स्तालिनवादी किसी को मिटा देते थे, या किसी किताब से उसकी तस्वीर ही फाड़ कर फेंक देते थे।
When you are out of favor, so to speak, it's not just the reviewers. It's the editors, the publishers, they don't want you anymore, you're just gone and you've been written out of history as effectively as the old Stalinists would write someone else out, take their photograph out of a book.
