Quote by Ron Currie Jr.

“I don't know if it's something that we as a species are hardwired for or if it's more of a contemporary phenomenon related to technology and rapid dissemination of data. I did know that whatever its cause or nature, I wanted to interrogate this phenomenon. But the only way for me to do that, the only tool I have to dissect it with, is a fictional narrative.”

“I've also never written about home in this way before. I guess a lot of it is subconscious and I am intuitively making these decisions when I'm writing.
