David Garvin
David Garvin asked Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni:

Marcel Proust never traveled outside his Parisian area and is quoted as saying "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." Others like Martha Gellhorn journeyed constantly. How crucial is travel to cognize your next writing project?
