I live in Dublin, God knows why. There are greatly more congenial places I could have settled in - Italy, France, Manhattan - but I like the climate here, and Irish light seems to be essential for me and for my writing.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich wohne in Dublin, Gott weiß warum. Es gibt viel kongenialere Orte, an denen ich mich hätte niederlassen können - Italien, Frankreich, Manhattan -, aber ich mag das Klima hier, und irisches Licht scheint für mich und für mein Schreiben von wesentlicher Bedeutung zu sein.

I look at that list of names and think, 'Here comes the fun - fun that knows its way around a dictionary.'

If you live in central London, that's probably fine for you, but in places like Edmonton, where you're almost out of sight of London, you've got to pay more and more to get into central London. How does that work?
