Personal Quote:

[The book I wish I'd written] I often wish I were TS Eliot. I don't think he suffered as much as people imagine he did. He lived to be old, was lucky in love late in life and he got to write Four Quartets. Not only do I wish I had written Four Quartets, but also I long to record them in Eliot's voice, so grave and thoughtful and melancholy. See more »

Trivia:

Editor of the Irish politics and current affairs magazine "Magill" (1982-85).
