“A SMALL PIECE OF TRUTH
I do not carry a sickle or scythe.

“But even beyond that I don't believe that books, even bad books, corrupt us. Instead I believe books challenge and interrogate, they give us windows into the lives of others and give us mirrors so that we can better see ourselves. And ultimately if you have a world view that can be undone by a novel, let me submit that the problem is not with the novel.”
