  1. Ursula K. Le Guin _ Tehanu

    By the time I wrote this book I needed to look at heroics from outside and underneath, from the point of view of the people who are not included. The ones who can't do magic. The ones who don't have shining staffs or swords. Women, kids, the poor, the old, the powerless. Unheroes, ordinary people-my people. I didn't want to change Earthsea, but I needed to see what Earthsea looked like to us.

  2. Orhan Pamuk _ Snow

    Heroic dreams are the consolation of the unhappy. After all, when people like us say we're being heroic, it usually means we're about to kill each other--or kill ourselves.
