• The word
  was born in the blood,
  grew in the dark body, beating,
  and took flight through the lips and the mouth.
  Farther away and nearer
  still, still it came
  from dead fathers and from wondering races,
  from lands which had turned to stone,
  lands weary of their poor tribes,
  for when grief took to the roads
  the people set out and arrived
  and married new land and water
  to grow their words again.
  And so this is the inheritance;
  this is the wavelength which connects us
  with dead men and the dawning
  of new beings not yet come to light.

  Pablo Neruda

  Father, Grief, Dark

• I try to think as little as possible, at least while working. I look at some of my early stories and can see the machination behind them, like a gear slowly moving. For example, sticking a dead father into the story to explain a character's sadness and bad decisions, or trying to impress myself with my own cleverness.

• You don't need a dead father to explain a character's sadness. And impressing yourself with wit/cleverness often feels like what it is - authorial intrusion.

• El caso es que pertenezco a esa triste minoría cada vez más reducida... la de los hijos de familias desestructuradas. He cargado con este albatros desde los once años, cuando empecé la escuela primaria. No pasaba un día sin que alguien que yo conociera resultara ser adoptado o ilegítimo, o que su madre estuviera a punto de largarse con algún tío, o que tuviera un padre muerto o un padrastro destartalado. Qué vidas tan ajetreadas llevaban. Cómo envidiaba sus excusas para la introspección, sus receptáculos marcados al oído para todo antagonismo justo y lealtad noble.

• You've been brought up like a gentleman and a Christian, and I should be false to the trust laid upon me by your dead father and mother if I allowed you to expose yourself to such temptation.' Well, I know I'm not a Christian and I'm beginning to doubt whether I'm a gentleman,' said Philip.
