I have observed that male writers tend to get asked what they think and women what they feel. In my experience, and that of a lot of other women writers, all of the questions coming at them from interviewers tend to be about how lucky they are to be where they are – about luck and identity and how the idea struck them. The interviews much more seldom engage with the woman as a serious thinker, a philosopher, as a person with preoccupations that are going to sustain them for their lifetime Picture Quote #1

I think it’s a question which particularly arises over women writers: whether it’s better to have a happy life or a good supply of tragic plots Picture Quote #1
