I love to think about where novels come from, how they’re made—and to talk with readers and writers about them.
I get a kick out of sharing books with readers I know will love them, too, especially those “sleeper” books they might not find on their own.
Thus, Book Pilgrim, a place to ponder what it feels like to live inside a novel.
How seeing the world through a character’s eyes changes the way we see it, dredging up memories to reconsider and sparking insights that make some of the puzzle pieces in our lives fall into place.
Not to mention our delight and wonder in how words work on the page to create a world as beautiful, terrible, mysterious and real as the world we live in.
And, of course, the pleasure of escaping that real world for a little while.
