Amount Quote by David Bezmozgis
“When you write a book, you want to have fidelity to the character. Characters and their emotions guide the structure of the novel. The author is aware that there's a certain amount of information she/he has to provide in order to satisfy the reader, knowing that she/he has set something up that must be paid off, but this payment must be made while maintaining fidelity to the characters.”
![“If the fidelity [ in a book] isn't maintained, the reader will think your structure is extraneous, or superficial, or that you're trying to curry favor, or live up to the expectations of some sort of genre or structure.” quote by David Bezmozgis](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/205/david-bezmozgis-20993_book_if-the-fidelity-in-a-book-isn-t-maintain_2695984.jpg)
