Wow...this is one of the most profound interviews with a writer I've ever seen...I so admire him and his work...even more so now...
So many brilliant insights!
Wow, this was excellent.
Very solid advice.
Thank you!
I didn’t know who he was going into this, but I’m convinced enough now to find out a great deal about him.
One of the most important videos I’ve ever watched
Interesting guy. I must admit I have no idea who he is though...
He’s Penguin Man
I don't know anything about him, his accent is curious so I'm trying to guess where it's from.
I'm going to say south African but lived in new york for quite a few years since.
He's Irish.
Love how he uses his own works as examples of literary greatness..?!?!
Sums up the over inflated ego of this mediocrity.! The successor to Proust
and Henry James.. ( self appointed ! ). Would be laughable but he actually believes it...!!
