Tobias Wolff Quotes

I Have Never Been Able To Understand The Complaint That A Story Is "depressing" Because Of Its Subject Matter. What Depresses Me Are Stories That Don't Seem To Know These Things Go On, Or Hide Them In Resolute Chipperness; "witty Stories," In Which Every Problem Is The Occasion For A Joke; "upbeat" Stories That Flog You With Transcendence. Please. We're Grown Ups Now.
