Africa was the most exotic place i could conceive of - the end of the world - and i knew i would go there one day.
I love sherlock holmes. there's still an awful lot to steal from conan doyle. but within a tradition you can work in many different ways.
Our exile organizations have been our way of replacing the cities and villages we have lost.
For me oliver twist is a political novel. it is a furious critique of the treatment of orphans and poor children who were forced to spend their early lives in ghastly institutions.
We used to send whole flocks of birds shooting out of our mouths and never managed to grab them by their wings.
Although many of his other novels are brilliant there is a power in 'oliver twist' that i believe dickens never managed to retrieve. it is as if he was sent to this earth with the sole purpose of writing this book.
He was so excessively polite that wallendar suspected he had endured many humiliations in his life.
When i was a very young author, i knew i needed to build myself a tower outside of europe. like when you're a hunter, and build towers to watch the animals move. i knew i would never understand the world without that perspective. i came to africa for that rational reason, although i love mozambique now.
Certainly, i know what it's like to be obsessed. i haven't always been there for my children. they could reach me, but i wasn't always there. but, you know, that's not necessarily anything to do with being a writer. i mean, a taxi driver could have the same problem... maybe.
Shakespeare is in many ways an african writer and 'hamlet' would be seen as a very accurate historical saga about an african kingdom.
What annoys a person who suicides? the life itself. boredom. tiredness that descends on every morning when you look at yourself at the mirror.
I think my wallander stories give a fairly good image of the world in the 1990s. i don't regret anything about that - on the contrary!
