Quotations for writers
“There’s this Chekhov quote that I’m kind of living by lately. He says a work of art doesn’t have to solve a problem — it just has to formulate it correctly. So in this book there are two characters who embody that question, and I think they’re both right. My job, rather than answering your question, is to allow each of them to make the best possible case for their view. So with this book and with Lincoln in the Bardo, I wrote myself into a place where the question got more and more profound, and I found myself less and less capable of giving a definitive answer. That’s not for an artist to do. You ratchet the question up, and you go, Yeah, that’s a tough one.”
—George Saunders
