This Fact Was Something I Also Learned From This First Novel That I Needed Personal Experience To Invent, To Fantasize, To Create Fiction, But At The Same Time I Needed Some Distance, Some Perspective On This Experience In Order To Feel Free Enough To Manipulate It And To Transform It Into Fiction. If The Experience Is Very Close, I Feel Inhibited. I Have Never Been Able To Write Fiction About Something That Has Happened To Me Recently. If The Closeness Of The Real Reality, Of Living Reality, Is To Have A Persuasive Effect On My Imagination, I Need A Distance, A Distance In Time And In Space.
