An individual voice can be heard in a choir that otherwise sings in unison. This is something that is not excused.

I belong to a specific category of writers, those who speak and write in a language different from that of their parents.

It is through accepting other people in our own countries that we shall come to respect our neighbours and be respected in our turn.

My characters are driven by a passionate desire for justice. They are rebellious and incorruptible.

Be vigilant, for nothing one achieves lasts forever.

I write about wounds, the eternal treasons of life. It's not very funny, but it's sincere. My commitment is to sincerity.

To lead a country, you must periodically hold a national consultation in which people representing different programmes can make a bid for power.
