Every woman adores a Fascist.

There must be quite a few things that a hot bath won't cure, but I don't know many of them.

I think my poems immediately come out of the sensuous and emotional experiences I have.

What distresses me at times is that I meet a lot of people in their 40's, 50's, 60's, who still say they're a victim of child abuse.

'Alpha' is a very fast-moving book. It doesn't lend itself to laborious introspection and the navel-gazing that some stories can fall prey to.
