Zitat des Tages von Elif Safak:
I write as if I were drunk. It is a process of intuition rather than placing myself above my story like a puppeteer pulling strings. For me, it's a scary, chaotic process over which I have little control. Words demand other words, characters resist me.
For me, writing stories is one way of feeling connected to the universe and God.
I write with humour about sadness, to introduce an element of sweet to the sour, a bit like Turkish food.
