If You Can Live In

You Can't Make Accommodations In Crucial Situations And Be Heroic.

My Novels Are About The European Reality, Not About Chases. You Want Chases, Get Somebody Else's Books.

The Printing Presses Of The State Treasuries Cranked Out Reams Of Paper Currency- Showing Wise Kinds And Blissful Martyrs- While Bankers Wept And Peasants Starved.

I Read Very Little Contemporary Anything.

I Don't Just Want My Books To Be About The '30s And '40s. I Want Them To Read As If They Had Been Written Then. I Think Of Them As '40s Novels, Written In The Conservative Narrative Past.
