Writers

A teenager dreaming up Frankenstein on a rainy holiday, a clerk begging his friend to burn everything he wrote, a man reprieved in front of a firing squad, and a lady of the Japanese court writing a novel a thousand years ago. Every book starts with someone alone in a room with a reason. Drift toward the writers who couldn't stop.
