"I've become quite wary of the power to provoke emotions."
In today's Guardian. A quiet, probing and nuanced interview by Alex Clark with the great novelist Kazuo Ishiguru.
On writing, on generational changes in writers, on ignoring genre boundaries, on the difficulty of preserving integrity as a writer when genAI gets good at manipulating our emotions.
Set up to promote a re-edition of one of his novels, but very much worth reading.

So as someone who has met #AlexClark I have to say, she acts the same way in person. But like many #conservative women they just loathe themselves so much they try to bring whoever they can down with them into their despair. The whole "you should be a wife with no career, but I'll have a career still".
