I like the beauty of Faulkner's poetry. But I don't like his themes, not at all.

I write novels because there is something I don't understand in reality.

I'm not a best-seller, but through translations, I've accumulated some money.

Hitchcock makes it very clear to us. There's an objective and a subjective camera, like there's a third- and a first-person narrator in literature.

Book reviews have never helped me. Most of them erred in their interpretations and their work has been a waste of time.

I believe in characters as vehicles of exposition. Their voices are full of hidden clues, and I like to listen to them.

I didn't choose literature. Literature chose me. There was no decision on my side.
