"I love research. People have different tolerances for tedious research. I happen to have a very high one . . . If I’m in the very early stages of a book, it’s a lot of research and taking notes. I research until the point where I can start writing, and then I keep researching . . . I’m on my sixth book. They’re all different stories, but they’re all set in the 19th century. There are things that overlap, so it’s less of an uphill climb now. I have a head start."

About Matthew Pearl

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”

“It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it.”

Oscar Wilde

“Do not read, as children do, to amuse yourself, or like the ambitious, for the purpose of instruction. No, read in order to live.”

Gustave Flaubert

“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads lives only one.”
