For those of us (I mean me) who have a love/hate relationship with #Babitz, this #ParisReview except from her 1969/70 diary is a real trip! Not sure if a diarist can be charged with namedropping, but she lets 'em plummet with panache.

"I put stories in envelopes on the subway... and hoped that... And I mailed them to people out of the phone book. I just wanted to feel like somebody was reading them--like it wasn't... That there was a possibility they had an audience, even if it was one random person..." #ParisReview #Writing

“Anyone who writes is a seeker. You look at a blank page and you’re seeking. The role is assigned to us and never removed. I think this is an unbelievable blessing. I mean, to be seventy-eight years old and still looking—this amazes me.” —Louise Glück in @parisreview

They didn’t tell me I had to sit in a waiting room and drink nasty crap for an hour. Vandalizing their magazine was my only option. #art #poetry #parisreview #artyear #spreadjoy #stars

RIP Mario Vargas Llosa.

theparisreview.org/interviews/2...

In this lovely @parisreview interview from 1990 Llosa remarks that he relied on the "trampoline of reality" to write and found insight—in supposed contrast to Marquez who is said to have written Solitude in his head during a car ride—

Quoting Neruda: “I have a chest full of all the insults, villainies, and infamies a man is capable of withstanding. . . . If you become famous, you will have to go through that.”
