| There seem to have been more elements of the fantastic in a couple of your recent “literary” novels. Have you in some sense relaxed about the “M” and “non-M” personas getting mixed up? Related question: do you come across people who really can’t abide the fact you write SF novels? “Transition was a deliberate attempt to bring the M and non-M strands back together, using The Bridge as a sort of template. I’d been meaning to do something like that for about a decade and it’s a relief finally to have done it, even though I may have made the result slightly too SF-ish for some tastes. But it was always going to be a kind of for-one-night-only deal. I like skipping between mainstream and SF. “I certainly used to encounter people who’d bemoan the fact I wasted my time with this ‘skiffy’ rubbish and indeed I still do. However, I am happy to report that now I also occasionally meet people strongly advising me to drop this pedestrian mainstream rubbish and concentrate on what I do best, which, in their opinion, is the SF. I bask in the beatific glow of having achieved this cosmic balance!” |
