The Dystopia Triptych Quotes

“IF the act of reading didn’t already exist, to describe the process would sound like the height of science fiction: One person creates shapes on a page, and when another looks at the shapes they hear voices, see new worlds, are transported to a fiction that becomes as believable as reality. Auditory and visual hallucinations from staring at squiggles on a sliver of dead tree? And this process can work across space and time? So even the dead can talk to the living, and the living can shape the imagination of another? The strangest thing about this endeavor is that we don’t all marvel at its impossibility. We take it for granted.”
― John Joseph Adams, The Dystopia Triptych: Ignorance is Strength, Burn the Ashes, & Or Else the Light - Digital Box Set
