Andrew Vachss and Dave Marsh: A Conversation

“[Burke’s] a thief. He hates people who prey on children. Not because he loves children—because he was preyed on. He wants to get even, that’s his revenge. And his revenge and his religion are exactly the same thing. He sees it as an ‘us and them’ world. He’s not really concerned if you’re rich or poor, black or white—if you prey on children and you cross his path, it’s going to be bad for you.”

Listen to Ed Goldberg’s interview with Andrew Vachss, broadcast January 1, 2008, on KBOO radio.
