Famous quotes containing the word fiction:

    “... any fiction ... is bound to be transposed autobiography.”
    —Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    “To value the tradition of, and the discipline required for, the craft of fiction seems today pointless. The real Arcadia is a lonely, mountainous plateau, overbouldered and strewn with the skulls of sheep slain for vellum and old bitten pinions that tried to be quills. It’s forty rough miles by mule from Athens, a city where there’s a fair, a movie house, cotton candy.”
    —Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
