The trouble with calling a book a novel, well, it's not like I'm writing the same book all the time, but there is a continuity of my interests, so when I start writing a book, if I call it 'a novel,' it separates it from other books.

  • -- Aleksandar Hemon 亚历山大·黑蒙

把一本书叫做小说的麻烦在于,我并不是一直在写同一本书,但是我的兴趣是有连续性的,所以当我开始写一本书的时候,如果我把它叫做“小说”,它就把它和其他的书分开了。
