Quotes by Angus Fletcher (?)

“For whatever the power of truth may be, literature's own special power has always lain in fiction. That wonder we construct. It is the invention that unbreaks the heart and brings us into hope and peace and love.”
― Angus Fletcher, Wonderworks: Literary invention and the science of stories
