“I always think about which blood drive was going on in Georgia that day when that husband or mom or school teacher rolled up their sleeve and actually gave me a second chance at life.

“I disagree that Blood Will Out is a memoir in the conventional sense. It's the story of a relationship, primarily, not an individual. The "me" in the book is a specialized version of me, the person who Clark manipulated and fooled. I could cover the same years of my life from an entirely different perspective in another book, by concentrating on my experience as a husband, say. But I was selective. I focused on my duping.” YearsPersonsBookDifferentStoriesIndividualBloodPerspectiveHusbandFocusedMemoirVersionsDisagreeConventionalFooledConcentratingSelectiveDifferent Perspective Author:Walter Kirn
“An interesting example is that the worst woman in the book, who is so cruel and violent, is the sorceress in "The Prince of the Black Islands." She's a beautiful young woman, and she has turned her husband into stone from the waist down. A traveling sultan finds him, in his dreadful state, and the man petrified from the waist down tells his sad story...how his wife comes every afternoon and beats him until the blood runs down. She's just unwontedly, arbitrarily cruel.” MenBookStatesStoriesRunningBeautifulYoungBlackInterestingWifeBloodWorstExampleHe ManHusbandBeatsStonesViolentIslandsAfternoonYoung WomenSad StorySorceress Author:Marina Warner
