ヘルプ

His vows to the muse… prohibited among other things the blurbing of blurbs except for first books by his former apprentices at our joint alma mater.

-Barth writing about himself in Coming Soon!!!

My feeling about technique in art is that it has about the same value as technique in lovemaking. Heartfelt ineptitude has its appeal and so does heartless skill; but what you want is passionate virtuosity.

Nothing is intrinsically valuable; the value of everything is attributed to it, assigned to it from outside the thing itself, by people.

If you are a novelist of a certain type of temperament, then what you really want to do is re-invent the world. God wasn't too bad a novelist, except he was a Realist.
