John Barth Quote
But I reckon we can manage somehow. The important thing to remember, after all, is that it’s meant to be a house; that is, a place of amusement. If people really got lost or injured or too badly frightened in it, the owner’d go out of business. There’d even be lawsuits. No character in a work of fiction can make a speech this long without interruption or acknowledgment from the other characters.
