"I think if my temperament's expressed in my work which I'm sure it must be, an interest ... a sort of love of human personality," he says. "It's the love of personality that makes me sometimes bored with philosophy and want to go back to literature."

It was a kind of shortcut way of importing some brilliant writing by novelists like Edmund White,.
