Novel

A novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, normally in prose, which is typically published as a book.

Novel

All novels are sequels; influence is bliss.

Novel

Novels for me are how I find out what's going on in my own head. And so that's a really useful and indeed critical thing to do when you do as many of these other things as I do.

Cory Doctorow in Steven D. Price (13 December 2013). The Little Black Book of Writers' Wisdom. Skyhorse Publishing Company, Incorporated. p. 94. ISBN 978-1-62636-514-8.

Novel

The stupidity of people comes from having an answer for everything. The wisdom of the novel comes from having a question for everything....The novelist teaches the reader to comprehend the world as a question. There is wisdom and tolerance in that attitude. In a world built on sacrosanct certainties the novel is dead...In any case, it seems to me that all over the world people nowadays prefer to judge rather than ask so that the voice of the novel can hardly be heard over the noisy foolishness of human certainties

Milan Kundera in Radwa Ashour (1 November 2007). Siraaj: An Arab Tale. University of Texas Press. p. xvi. ISBN 978-0-292-71752-7.

Innovating for decentralised energy

Small power stations are nothing new, but in the past they tended to use a lot of energy. An EU-funded project sought to build a more efficient and cheaper microgeneration system that should enable end users to substitute regular boilers once and for all.
