"It was always a false assumption that white American writers cannot write novels about race unless they're approaching it from a very oblique angle."

Previous Quote

Maybe just as many women writers as male writers could be billed as the next great American writer by their publisher. Maybe book criticism sections could review an equal amount of female and male writers. Maybe Oprah could start putting some books by women authors in her book club, since most of her audience is women.
