Especially in Reader's Block, all that personal stuff re: Reader and/or Protagonist, ex-wife, ex-galfriends, children, lack of money, isolation, messed-up life, and/or some items dictated by novelistic necessity---and of course there is necessary invention there also, e.g., a house at a cemetery---but even little items like a couple of yellow stones from Masada or a reproduction of Giotto's Dante---I plucked up whatever was ready at hand. Is that laziness, or is it what they speak of as using what one knows? Take your pick."---David Markson To Francoise Palleau-Papin --Book Jacket.
