Tim Powers on the brink of fame

[eska]

"Some people said, 'Powers are you worried that they're going to mess up your book?' and I always think of something James Cain, the author of 'The Postman Always Rings Twice,' said when people asked what he thought of the things Hollywood had done to his books; he pointed to the bookshelf and said, 'They haven't done anything to them, look.' That's my attitude."

Вообще-то ровно ту же историю рассказывает Джордж Мартин про Роджера Желязны - правда, упоминая, что он цитировал кого-то великого.
