Topics Mentioning This Author

Edgar Allan Poe
“[E]very plot, worth the name, must be elaborated to its dénouement before anything be attempted with the pen. It is only with the dénouement constantly in view that we can plot its indispensable air of consequence, or causation, by making the incidents, and especially the tone at all points tend to the development of the intention.”
Edgar Allan Poe, Phantastische Erzählungen

Brian Selznick
“Maybe we are all cabinets of wonders.”
Brian Selznick, The Invention of Hugo Cabret

“There is something inherently deceptive about reality.”
Alexandar Tomov
