“It’s not life or death, the labyrinth.”

“Um, okay. So what is it?”

“Suffering,” she said. “Doing wrong and having wrong things happen to you. That’s the problem. Bolívar was talking about the pain, not about the living or dying. How do you get out of the labyrinth of suffering?”

In other news, Happy Alaska Young Day. Looking for Alaska came out almost seven years ago, and today it is finding more readers than ever. I am so grateful I am to all of you who’ve read the book and shared it with the people you care about. By doing so, you’ve given Alaska a life I could never have imagined for it. Thanks.
