The thing that gets clearer and clearer as you get older is to keep developing. As long as they don’t like what you’re doing now, they’ll love it in 20 years time, just the way they’re now loving what you did 20 years ago.

“There is no literary elite in this country, unless it’s the corporate elite that runs the book business. It’s a totally different situation. What I’d say we have here is an underground that exists perennially, a steady kind of thing, and out of this movements occasionally arise and subside, but it’s always there. Whereas in France, especially, you have this series of avant-gardes which are, actually, nothing more than the cutting edge of bourgeois culture.“
