Sunday Sentence: Sweet Thunder

August 25, 2013

Sunday Sentence: The best sentence(s) from this week, out of context and without commentary. Inspired by David Abrams at The Quivering Pen.

Sweet Thunder
Riverhead Books, August 2013

 

I thought again what an achievement a book is, a magic box simultaneously holding the presence of the author and the wonders of the world.
