On Digesting Stories



"...I thought I had finished reading [a short story] - but it keeps on coming back, seeping into how I see things, sharmpening the way I hear a difference between what people are saying and what they are feeling.  It's as if a room I know well had suddenly acquired a new window."

From the introduction of The Victoria Reader: A Treasury of Timeless Stories
