Quote by John Green
We dont tend to write about disease in fiction - not just teen nov

We dont tend to write about disease in fiction – not just teen novels but all American novels – because it doesnt fit in with our idea of the heroic romantic epic. There is room only for sacrifice, heroism, war, politics and family struggle. – John Green
