“Now I understand much more clearly the magic that happens on the page: the thing you didn’t expect, the thing you couldn’t have thought of when you were making a plan. When a book is working, the characters take over. I’ve often thought about the process as being more one of listening than of making you sit there and listen to the people you’ve made up, they tell you what they need, and then you try and give it to them.” – Salman Rushdie in a recent interview with Publishers Weekly

His new novel, Quichotte, is longlisted for the Booker Prize. Don’t miss him in conversation with Mitchell Kaplan next month!
