“Nobody's brought off the Eastern novel recently, my view, Greene managed it, if you can take Greene, which I can’t—too much popery. Malraux, if you like philosophy, which I don't. Maugham you can have, and before that it's back to Conrad. Cheers. Mind me saying something? Go easy on the Hemingway stuff. All that grace under pressure, love with your balls shot off. They don't like it, my view. It's been said.”
