Tomorrow we’re interviewing six candidates for an assistant position at the agency. Without even looking at their resumes, I can bet they’ve gone to good colleges, speak Swahili and know Quark. I’m telling you, these kids today are sharp. Why then do they want to work in publishing? Because they love literature? I repeat: why work in publishing? Didn’t they get the memo, god and the book are dead.

It’s because they love books. God, I agree, dead, but the book/stories/drama/knowledge never.
