Norman Spinrad

English is taking over the world. I just wrote a piece about it. And it's not by design. The United States dominates because it's the biggest market.

The thematic, psychological, and cultural concerns of a writer are more relevant than whatever literary mode he or she chooses to deal with in any given novel.

I get work because I'm primarily a novelist but I've become script doctor. I can work back and forth between French and English.

I am shocked at the attitude of our American troops. They have no respect for death, the courage of an enemy soldier, or many of the ordinary decencies of life.

I think celebrities suck.

I don't like to get in front of people.
