“This is one way to break up the mood, the language, and the voice of your story. But there are so many other ways that dialogue can help in the design of the world we’re telling. You might need to explain an experience to the first-person narrator that he was not privy to. Maybe someone lies about, begs from, dismisses, or in some other way attempts to negate the dominant voice of the book.” (Walter Mosley, Elements of Fiction)
