Scott Turow Interested Quotations

I think the first serious novel that interested me was The Red Badge of Courage by Stephen Crane.

Americans became interested in what was going on in courtrooms because so much was being decided there.

In re-reading 'Presumed Innocent,' the one thing that struck me - and I re-read the book four different times in writing 'Innocent,' interested in different things each time - but I did think there were a couple of extra loops in the plot that I probably didn't need. The other thing that sort of amazed me was how discursive the book was.

It turned out people were intensely curious about what actually goes on in courtrooms, and that Americans were deeply interested in law.
