“I just can't imagine my life without Dostoevsky and The Brothers Karamazov. I can spin off of that and talk about Crime and Punishment and Tolstoy. I could talk about other novels, but for me it's Dostoevsky. His sheer size and grandeur, his sacramentality, his ecclesiology, and his sense of the human predicament are as powerful as it gets. Can't imagine not reading the Russians.” HumansI CanReadingPowerfulNovelImagineCrimeBrotherSizePunishmentSheerGrandeurPredicamentsCrime And PunishmentBrothers Karamazov Author:Gordon T. Smith

“Not a lot of contemporary fiction is written about brothers and sisters. Salinger's Franny and Zooey was an inspiration for me. In Franny and Zooey, the sister gets in trouble and the brother comes to help her out. But I wanted to make sure that in my novel the sister had more to do than lie around on a sofa muttering, which is what Franny does for two-thirds of Salinger's novel.” DoeTwoHelpingInspirationWantedLyingFictionNovelWrittenTroubleBrotherThirdsContemporaryBrothers And SistersContemporary FictionSofasMutteringSalinger Author:K.
