Lilian WhitingOnce we know the plot and its surprises, we can appreciate a book's artistry without the usual confusion and sap flow of emotion, content to follow the action with tenderness and interest, all passion spent.

Surprisingly, such dissection doesn't murder the experience. Just the opposite: Only then does a work of art fully live.

Colleen JonesThere are two kinds of witnesses. One kind is the people that surround you. You are constantly aware that you are being watched, witnessed.
