Last night, I went to Bozar to meet the writer. Zadie Smith’s answers just confirmed what she writes in her essays. She’s a coherent and a free thinker. There were about 1800 persons.
She talked among other things, about compassion, how politics is an unavoidable aspect of human life, about change and about growing old and how absurd and dangerous the idea of eternal life is.

In front of a book, you are still free. Between reader and book, there is only the continual risk of wrongness, word by word, sentence by sentence. The Internet does not get to decide. Nor does the writer. Only the reader decides. So decide.
