Margaret Drabble, multiple lives etc
“I do fear my physical world is getting thinner. When I was younger, I led multiple lives. When I’m here in Porlock, everything flows in again. It doesn’t matter if I’m thinning out. . . . The trees are full, the sea is full and I am getting more ghostly.”
Margaret Drabble, superb British novelist, in this excellent article/interview today: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/09/13/magazine/13Drabble-t.html?pagewanted=1&ref=magazine

Much as I like Margaret Drabble, I would love even more to read the same sort of piece about Beryl Bainbridge.
