Quote of the Day | 0326

when it comes to reading itself, I remain quietly relieved that it provides a fragile refuge where I can do something I don’t have to “share”. I don’t have to mash up the themes to create something new or re-tweet a great passage. There is real pleasure in consuming a finished product – self-contained and offered by an author unafraid to present themselves as a single authority, sans invitation to comment on the back pages or play with the novel’s open API.
