Quote du jour/Gilbert Keith Chesterton

A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author.

  1. Ew, lots to think about...I'm thinking anti-hero Humbert Humbert in Lolita and what it says about Nabokov.

I am changing how I post your much appreciated comments. Since I began the blog, I've waited to post them until I had the opportunity to respond. Sometimes that's taken a while, so I've decided to moderate them and post them as soon as possible, and then I'll respond when I get a chance.
Also, you may comment on any posts, no matter how old, and I will receive notice.
