William Vollmann is the most humane, curious, and empathetic writer I have ever read.

She looked sad. She preferred the new pop hit “Bridge Over Troubled Water” by a band called Simon & Garfunkel. This song disgusted DAVE. Eigentlich, it made him think of unwashed hippies masturbating.

William T. Vollmann should win the Nobel Prize in literature.
