Dan Chaon Quotes About Reading

Quotes about: Reading

  Interview with Molly Antopol, therumpus.net. September 15th, 2009.

• I have to admit that 'Psychology Today' was one of the first magazines I started reading, back when I was 13 or 14, because I was the kind of kid that was curious about the mysterious human mind - I hoped to learn about telekenisis, multiple personalities, psychosis, and various other cool and terrible things that happened inside people's heads.

  Reading, Kids, Psychosis

  Interview with Jennifer Haupt, www.psychologytoday.com. February 15, 2012.

• I've been reading Peter Straub since I was a teenager, and his work is hardwired into my brain. A Dark Matter contains echoes of all that has been great about Straub's previous work and builds upon it. This Rashomon-like tale is as spooky and frightening as anything he has written, but it's also an intense and moving celebration of love. Out of the darkness comes, ultimately, a surprising and haunting sense of joy.
