"I'm so boooooooooooored .
And frustrated. There really was a great 300 page book in here that Ellmann sacrificed for what feel like an unnecessary vanity project. The prose style though distinct and sharp, cannot sustain a 500 + page novel as the formula is extremely repetitive. At this point my friend & I are starting to see how she approaches a page and its so predictably bland. The lists have no flavor anymore"

Arundhati Roy
“She was my shelter and my storm.”
Arundhati Roy, Mother Mary Comes to Me

Paul Murray
“listening to her was like walking through a blizzard, a storm of frenzied white nothings that left you snow-blind.”
Paul Murray, The Bee Sting

Paul    Lynch
“I don’t sleep much at all, she says, I dream each night of a soundless sleep but that is impossible now, it took me some time before I understood that I was already asleep in a manner, you know, that I was sleeping all the time I thought I was awake, trying to see into the problem that stood before me like a great darkness, this silence consuming every moment of my life, I thought I’d go mad looking into it but then I awoke and began to see what they were doing to us, the brilliance of the act, they take something from you and replace it with silence and you’re confronted by that silence every waking moment and cannot live, you cease to be yourself and become a thing before this silence, a thing waiting for the silence to end, a thing on your knees begging and whispering to it all night and day, a thing waiting for what was taken to be returned and only then can you resume your life, but the silence doesn’t end, you see, they leave open the possibility that what you want will be returned some day and so you remain reduced, paralysed, dull as an old knife, and the silence does not end because the silence is the source of their power, that is its secret meaning.”
Paul Lynch, Prophet Song

Marge Piercy
“Since 1939 he had lived expecting war any moment. The Nazis were far more real to him than to most Americans he met, and far more frightening. He did not share the mirth of his acquaintances at Hitler the ex-paperhanger who made funny faces and ridiculous speeches as his legions goose-stepped and fell on their faces. He had seen them in the streets of Heidelberg and Berlin and Frankfurt. They were drunk with violence and power.”
Marge Piercy, Gone to Soldiers

Gabrielle Zevin
“Sam's doctor said to him, "The good news is that the pain is in your head."
But I am in my head, Sam thought.”
Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
