Angst in the Time of Corona
"A friend once told me that my fiction is about the many ways that people hurt each other and themselves because they think that they live in a Universe of One: they don't quite know that other people exist. I think that's an accurate description. I hope this doesn't suggest that the work is somber; self-involvement can lead people into pretty comical situations."
"In fiction or in journalism, the most important thing for me is that the people in the stories, whether real or fictional, feel fully alive
and recognizable."
