Imbolo Mbue quotes

It's so hard to be a stranger in a strange land. I don't think most people understand how difficult it is to leave behind what you know and come to a country where everything about you is considered "different." (Imbolo Mbue)
I did not do it because I wanted to one day have a book deal...I did it because I loved it, and I enjoyed it, and I did not know where it was going to take me. I did it out of love of the art. View quote

...The reason why people connected with the characters is because they are real, and to write real characters you have to go deep into them. As a human you look at another human and you come with your own judgements, but as a writer you have to put that aside and just look at people for who they are. It is a process, and much of it is subconscious... View quote
