Quote

With each book I write, I become more and more convinced that the books have a life of their own, quite apart from me.

What's my favourite book? It changes all the time.

The best books arise from some ultimate question in the author.

My favorite books are actually very complicated - 'One Hundred Years of Solitude', 'Ulysses'.

I have resolved to pick one novel and just read it over and over again for the rest of my life, because I cannot remember anything anymore.

I try not to recommend too many books, frankly, because I think there's a certain synchronicity that happens when people discover books.

Since I spend such a long time making each book, I only choose books that I'm really interested in and that I really love.

My favorite book is always the one I'm working on at the moment.

I just can't read, the way other people can, these tediously elaborated books.

My favorite is always the book that I'm currently reading.
