Incredible The Animal That First

I Have No Literary Fears.

I Believe In Books That Do Not Go To A Ready-made Public. I'm Looking For Readers I Would Like To Make. To Win Them, To Create Readers Rather Than To Give Something That Readers Are Expecting. That Would Bore Me To Death.

There Is No Creation Without Tradition; The 'new' Is An Inflection On A Preceding Form; Novelty Is Always A Variation On The Past.

I Have Never Considered Myself A Writer In Exile Because I Grew Up Outside Of My Own Country, Because My Father Was A Diplomat. Therefore, I Grew Up In Brazil, Chile, Argentina, The United States, I Studied In Switzerland - So I've Always Had Perspective On My Country - I Am Thankful For That.

Here Among My Books, My Wife, My Friends And My Loves, I Have Plenty Of Reasons To Keep Living.
