Mario Vargas Llosa and bang BANG on NPR
One of my favorite NPR stations-WPSU in beautiful, trout-laden State College, PA-just broadcast two interviews back to back. The first was with this Vargas Llosa fellow and the second was with me, the author of the mega-hit bang BANG. I never heard of this guy before, but I'll bet he was really thrilled to be on the same radio show as bang BANG. He seemed like a nice enough guy so I thought i'd give him a boost and buy his latest book. I like to encourage up-and-coming writers.

To tell the truth, I think the kid has talent-maybe he'll go somewhere. . . .

Believe it or not, there is a remarkable similarity between your work and that other guy's: Both of you have a remarkable ability to create an eerie dreamlike world. By any chance, do you both buy mushrooms from the same vendor?
Seriously--good interview!
