I would very much like to become a best-selling author.

The translator's task is to create, in his or her own language, the same tensions appearing in the original. That's hard!

It's my own personal unconscious that ultimately creates the novel's aesthetic facade.

I write for somebody who has my own limitations. My reader has a certain difficulty with concentrating, which in my case comes from being a film viewer.

Writers are not meant for action.

My only fantasy about writing was that in my old days, after directing many masterpieces, I would write my memoirs.

I don't have traceable literary models because I haven't had great literary influences in my life.
