"A novel can educate to some extent. But first, a novel has to entertain--that's the contract with the reader: you give me ten hours and I'll give you a reason to turn the page. I have a commitment to accessibility. I believe in plot. I want an English professor to understand the symbolism while at the same time I want one of my relatives--who's never read anything but the Sears catalogue--to read my books." ~Barbara Kingsolver
