I've become very frustrated trying to find interviews with authors that go into depth because there aren't any. Every single interview is conducted as though the interviewer knows absolutely nothing about writing, literature, and the writing process. Similarly, the authors never provide any deep insight about their work. Every conversation is carried out at the most superficial level. And I don't understand why this is so. Rather than hearing 20 consecutive interviews with an author discussing stupid things like how they got into writing, I'd love one 90-minute interview digging deeply into just one of their works, how that particular work evolved over time, their analysis of the character, plot, dynamics, etc.
Really. After a movie on "Everything is illuminated" (the first Foer's book) and another his book "Here I am" I can say the last speech by Foer contain a truth I some way.
I wish I could tell Jeff that Middlesex was to me what Anna Karenina was for him.
Sam Wyatt Write him a letter.

Why could not the channel simply allow the two writers to speak to each other?
