Chuck Klosterman Quotes About Reading

• It drives me crazy to do readings of my books, because if I read anything I've written in the past, I'd like to almost rewrite everything. If I could, I'd completely rewrite Fargo Rock City, and every sentence would be just slightly different. In all likelihood, most of them wouldn't be any better. Some of them would just be changed back to whatever form they used to be, before I second-guessed myself the first time.

• La gente está más interesada en leer ideas grandilocuentes, ya sean positivas o negativas. Por eso, una parte de mí ha perdido el interés por la crítica. Siempre me he dado cuenta de que la crítica es básicamente autobiografía. Obviamente, en mi crítica está muy claro que es autobiografía, pero creo que es así para todo el mundo.

  Interview with Noel Murray, www.avclub.com. November 15, 2006.

• I get enjoyment out of writing, but I get absolutely no enjoyment out of rewriting, so I don't do much of it. The more you work on something, certainly, the better it gets. But there's also a pretty clear law of diminishing returns. It drives me crazy to do readings of my books, because if I read anything I've written in the past, I'd like to almost rewrite everything.
