Example Quotes

But there came a point when we realized it was happening faster and was a much deeper phenomenon than had been recognized in our strategy.

The complaint was that it was simply a book of speeches, without the machinery of conventional fiction. Markson's books are compilations of facts and alleged facts, very artfully.
