RICH TEXTS: JOHN LE CARRE

IN THEIR WORDS

IN THEIR WORDS

"In this world, we must love the liars. Or live alone."

Sherman Alexie

"Would you not like to try all sorts of lives--one is so very small--but that is the satisfaction of writing--one can impersonate so many people. " Katherine Mansfield

AMBIGUOUS CHEKHOV

"I abide by a rule concerning reviews: I will never ask, neither in writing nor in person, that a word be put in about my book.... One feels cleaner this way. When someone asks that his book be reviewed he risks running up against a vulgarity offensive to authorial sensibilities.''
"Isolation in creative work is an onerous thing. Better to have negative criticism than nothing at all."
"Despite your best efforts, you could not invent a better police force for literature than criticism and the author’s own conscience."
