“I’ve always felt a writer is something of a medium, and when something is really working, he has a certain clairvoyant power; he has a sense of what’s going on. Whenever I’ve published a book that’s received wide attention, I’ve heard from thousands of people around the world who have been thinking the same thing—as though I’d anticipated things. I didn’t mean to, but I’ve learned one does.”—Saul Bellow, quoted by Michiko Kakutani, The Poet at the Piano: Portraits of Writers, Filmmakers, Playwrights, and Other Artists at Work (1988)
