Deutsche Übersetzung

Verwenden Sie niemals das Wort "Publikum". Die Vorstellung eines Publikums, wenn der Dichter nicht für Geld schreibt, scheint mir falsch zu sein. Dichter haben kein "Publikum". Sie sprechen die ganze Zeit mit einer einzelnen Person.

Imagine a world in which no writer has written a literary novel in sixty years. Imagine a place where not a single person has read a book that is truly about the character at its center.

The great thing about novels is that you can be as unshy as you want to be. I'm very polite in person. I don't want to talk about startling or upsetting things with people.
