I’ve always wondered about Tristram Shandy. Why more people don’t cite how influential it is. How modern. We need a new Tristram Shandy, a city of shanties filled with Tristram Shandy, and Jennifer Egan is well on her way to helping us get there. Thank the literary gods.

Who needs expensive writing workshops when this kind of insight is freely available. Thank you.

JE, you rock! (As do you, Rumpus!)

I love what you have to say about writing and craft and time. I’m going to be thinking about it for days.

(I also wanted to let you know: the late Craig Arnold told me once, in addition to being a great writer, you’re a very sweet person. I thought you’d want to know.)

What a great, thought-provoking interview. I love Jennifer Egan’s books–they’re as smart and emotional as anything being published, and it’s great to see how her mind works.
