I know that it can be really difficult to read about your own life... in someone else's words.

We all have complexity in our lives.

I tried to find a social niche at Harvard - a group, my group - but I was unsuccessful.

The social scene at the Harvard I knew was outside the rules of literature. It was less poignant.

By the time I was seven, my mother and I had moved 13 times.

You can have a value system and be unable to totally live it.

It's not a fun thing to be the person set up in opposition to the work everyone loves.

In literature there was always an epiphany - a tingling moment, sometimes buried - the pearl around which the whole work formed.
