Michael Chabon Quotes

And Then He Had Trained Them, Those Lupine Eyes, On Her. The Hunger In Them So Startled Her That She Took A Step Backward, Striking Her Head Against An Iron Pillar With Such Force That She Later Found Crumbs Of Dried Blood In Her Hair. It Was A Purely Impersonal Hunger, If Such A Thing There Was - And Here Her Report To Mr. Panicker Faltered Under The Burden Of His Disapproval For Her "romantic Nature" - A Hunger Devoid Of Prurience, Appetite, Malice, Or Goodwill. It Was A Hunger, She Decided Later, For Information. And Yet There Was Liveliness In His Gaze, A Kind Of Cool Vitality That Was Nearly Amusement, As If A Steady Lifelong Diet Of Mundane Observations Had Preserved The Youthful-ness Of His Optic Organs Alone.
