Famous quotes containing the words wilderness and/or areas:

    Thou wilt be a wilderness again,
    Peopled with wolves, thy old inhabitants!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The point is, that the function of the novel seems to be changing; it has become an outpost of journalism; we read novels for information about areas of life we don’t know—Nigeria, South Africa, the American army, a coal-mining village, coteries in Chelsea, etc. We read to find out what is going on. One novel in five hundred or a thousand has the quality a novel should have to make it a novel—the quality of philosophy.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
