Michael Thomas Ford Quote
When compiled its list of the one hundred best novels written in English, do you know that was number twelve? She stopped pacing and glared at Jane. And do you know where was? she asked. She looked at the four of them in turn, but nobody answered her. Number fifty-two! she shrieked. Fifty-two! Below that pornographic travesty ! She spat the title as if it were poison. Below ! Below . Have you ever tried to read ? Have you ever finished it? No, you haven't. No one has. They just carry it around and lie about having read it.

She might not have read many books. But when she reads a book, she swallows the very words. If you open the books on her shelves, you will find that the front and back covers encase white pages.
