Quote

In Europe life is histrionic and dramatized, and in America, except when it is trying to be European, it is direct and sincere.

I loved Europe so much.

I have a European frame of mind and Europe is my home.

I love Europe even though I'm based in the U.S.

My life is European.

It's hard to explain why I like Europe so much.

I decided that Europeans and Americans are like men and women: they understand each other worse, and it matters less, than either of them suppose.

I've never lived in Eastern Europe, although both my wife and I have ancestors in Poland and Russia - but I can see the scenes I create.

I love Europe.

I've never set a book in Europe. I've lived in Europe three times, but somehow or other it wasn't the experience that engaged me in that way.
