“'Caught' is a novel of forgiveness, and the past and the present - who should be and who shouldn't be forgiven. None of my books are ever just about thrills, or it won't work.”
Tip: press → for another quote, C to copy, S to share.
Make no mistake, adolescence is a war. No one gets out unscathed.
I'd never had money growing up, and it's never been that important to me, except maybe to take our kids on a nice vacation or something like that.
What I want to do is tell stories about normal people in the American suburbs. I don't write the book where it's a conspiracy reaching the prime minister I don't write the book with the big serial killer who lops off heads. My setting is a very placid pool of suburbia, family life. And within that I can make pretty big splashes.
Hope can be the most wonderful thing in the world or it can crush your heart like an eggshell.
