I have a slightly contrarian streak as a writer, and one of the things I was interested in was how distilled could I make a life, and how I could cross what is kind of trivialized as a domestic novel with a novel of ideas, a philosophical novel.

Ich habe eine etwas konträre Rolle als Schriftsteller, und eines der Dinge, an denen ich interessiert war, war, wie destilliert ich ein Leben machen konnte und wie ich das, was irgendwie wie ein Heimtrikot trivialisiert ist, mit einem Ideenroman, einem philosophischen, überqueren kann Roman.

One of the things that's important to me as a Londoner is making sure my family, people I care about, are safe.
