Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o on the Art of Fiction: "Often you can see things that the reader from the colonizing country cannot see. Your perspective is different."

Sigrid Nuñez on the Art of Fiction: "I grope my way forward blindly. The less you know about what's going to happen, the more room there is for your imagination."

Art by Stanley Whitney and Marc Hundley.
