When I'm Working, I'm Not So Much

I Never Wanted To Be Mainstream As A Writer, But Look At What's Happened.

I've Heard People, Usually Writers, Say That No One Wrote A Great Book After Winning The Booker, But I Honestly Did Not Feel Any Big Pressure. The Gathering Did Hang Over Me In That It Was Darker Than I Thought At The Time.

We Do Not Always Like The People We Love- We Do Not Always Have That Choice.

One Of The Reasons I Write Is I Like Being Surprised

It Is Very Hard To Trace The Effect Of Words On A Life.
