My novels are high concept. I guess big ideas interest me more than, say, the minutiae of domestic life.

It's time for the party of big ideas, not the party of Big Brother!

Real life is physical. Give me books instead. Give me the invisibility of the contents of books, the thoughts, the ideas, the images. Let me become part of a book. . . . an intertextual being: a book cyborg, or, considering that books aren't cybernetic, perhaps a bibliorg.

There is no accountability today... no willingness to focus on big ideas.

Big ideas we tend to like are the ones that seem impossible or crazy.

I like to say that I'm tracing the intersection between big ideas and human experience, between theology and real life.
