Geoff Dyer on writing and commercial success - Hay 09 Speaker Interviews

May 2009

Speakers: Geoff Dyer

Writer Geoff Dyer talks to Lisa Dwan about the varying processes, organic and restrictive, of writing. Dyer discusses his indirect role as "some sort of vagabond, anarchist of the publishing scene", as a writer who is not afraid of commerical suicide, whose work does not conform to bookshop genres and who admits that all writers really want is to be read.
