"I think a writer’s job is to provoke questions. I like to think
that if someone’s read a book of mine, they’ve had—I don’t know what—the
literary equivalent of a shower. Something that would start them thinking in a
slightly different way perhaps. That’s what I think writers are for. This is
what our function is. We spend all our time thinking about how things work, why
things happen, which means that we are more sensitive to what’s going on."
