Resisting the Path of Least Resistance: An Interview with Jennifer Egan

JENNIFER EGAN
I love the feeling of being delivered out of my self and into another world. I balk when I start to feel like anything is about myself, or someone like me—and I’m terrible at writing about people I know, so I’ve given that up, much to the joy of my family and friends. Whenever I feel like I’m developing a path of least resistance I try to resist it.
