“There are patterns in a life, and patterns in a story, but in real lives and good stories the patterns are hard to see... But sometimes you find a book that feels as strange as life does. These books feel true. These books are important.”

“Reading on a computer screen gives you no sense of time or investment. The page always looks the same, and everything is always in the same exact spot. When reading the book, no matter how large or small it is, a tension builds, concurrent with your progress through its pages.
