Here [the U.S.], in the normal situation, the writer depends on the reader, he depends on the sales. The more sales, and the more readers like you—the better for the writer.

In Russia, before the revolution, after the revolution, the most popular writers were forbidden—it was impossible to buy or sell these books.
