My wife said something that was so wonderful. Toward the end of all this, when I finally did find the right way to write the story and I was very happy, I said, "Jessica, I'm just a quirky writer. I'm always going to write quirky books, and I guess that's just the way it's going to be." And she said, "Well, Mark, our quirks are all we have to offer."—Mark Salzman, The Man in the Empty Boat
