John Baker has more: A Clean Well Lighted Place II .
Money quote:
" ... art is never the voice of a country, it is now and always has been the voice of an individual reaching out to the world. It is the voice of an individual doing its best to speak the truth and the art that speaks it most directly is fiction, and in particular, that of the novel.It is not my intention to delineate the reason for the existence of the novel except to point out that it has always been concerned with what is regarded as local, ordinary and extraordinary day to day human experience."
