What I felt was, if you spend your life just writing fiction, you are going to falsify your material. And the fictional form was going to force you to do things with the material, to dramatize it in a certain way. I thought nonfiction gave one a chance to explore the world, the other world, the world that one didn't know fully.

Novels shouldn’t aspire to answer questions, and I wouldn’t presume to offer advice about love or marriage in any case.
