  • Interview with Nicole Krauss about her love for writing and literature in general. The New York Times declared Krauss as one of America's most important contemporary novelists.
    In this conversation Nicole Krauss (b. 1974) reflects on different aspects of literature. Growing up in a family, that had fled Europe during the Second World War, Krauss did not have a feeling of a rooted home, fleeing into the world of reading at an early age later, that led her towards writing. On a blank page, we can be anything, she says. Also Krauss reflects upon the concept of heritage and loss, that recur in all of her novels. We all suffer loss, Krauss states, but the interesting thing is how we deal and live on with it. Finally, Krauss argues, that every novel is championing the individual over the masses, thereby having a political aspect to it. The world of literature reminds the reader of the fact, that each life is singular and thus of infinite value.

    Their homes exist in their heart, I hope. And they exist still, because they did exist before. Did younwrite 'The History of Love'. What a pleasure that book was to read... Saint Ex, who I always liked so much, from reading 'The Little Prince' in Year 11 French. What a pleasure it was to hear him written about in the chapters of your book! You wrote so well and so informatively on so many things. I come from a place where no one lives in apartments, and it is so different to New York. Yes, so many people had to move from Europe to a new place, so fascinating, and yet some of them reunited in the big city of New York. Another thing I learned from your writing, and it was so interesting to read about that piece of history... thank you Nicole for your excellent book!

    Great interview. Note to producer, classical music interludes were distracting and at some point I wondered if I had some music playing from another source in the background.

    Greatest 20th century novel, bar none, The Master and Margarita by Bulgakov. It's not really a novel, it's an initiation into other realms. An initiation into love and redemption. Noel
