W. H. Auden Zitate

Hemingway is terribly limited. His technique is good for short stories, for people who meet once in a bar very late at night, but do not enter into relations. But not for the novel.

W. H. Auden

Bewertung: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 5,0 Sterne

Deutsche Übersetzung

Hemingway ist sehr begrenzt. Seine Technik ist gut für Kurzgeschichten, für Leute, die sich sehr spät abends in einer Bar treffen, aber keine Beziehungen eingehen. Aber nicht für den Roman.

Three of my novels and a good number of my short stories are told from the point of view of men. I was brought up in a house of women.

The short story is an imploding universe. It has all the boil of energy inside it. A novel has shrapnel going all over the place. You can have a mistake in a novel. A short story has to be perfect.

I've written short stories in first person, but you have so much more control writing in third person. Third person, you know what everybody's thinking. First person is very limiting, and I could never sustain a first person novel before.

Some people are very lucky, and have the story in their heads. I've never storyboarded anything. I like the idea of chance. What makes God laugh is people who make plans.

Sometimes people go to a yoga class and think it's not for them, but it might just not be the right studio or teacher - try a new one!

The truth is that the writers who most influenced me weren't people categorized as crime writers. I'd say I learned more from John O'Hara, who isn't much read today but whose short stories I really admired, and Hemingway, who I think has lasted pretty good.
