Anthony Burgess, Jerzy Kosinski, and Barbara Howar ask talk show host Dick Cavett about writing and reviews as his book (published in 1974) appears.
“I don’t know why we have to suffer reviews,” says Burgess, who reveals that he once wrote five and a half books in twelve months when he believed he had one year to live. “Reviews don’t sell books. Reviews don’t sell books in any country.”
