  • Интересный, интеллигентый и умный человек. Фраза "в этой стране", однако, вызывает неприятное чувство, словно произносящий её намеренно отделяет себя от "этой страны". Еще непонятно, почему не нашлось интервьюера с родным русским языком. Довольно забавно, когда в России интервью у американца берут на русском с выраженным акцентом, а тот отвечает на почти чистом русском. Американский флаг за спиной писателя придает сцене ненужный пафос.
