Antonio Tabucchi

No, I'm happy to go on living the life I've chosen. I'm a university teacher and I like my job.

Literature is my life of course, but from an ontological point of view. From an existential point of view, I like being a teacher.

My job is to look at what politics is doing, not be a politician myself.

I live quietly at home among my family and friends.

Literature for me isn't a workaday job, but something which involves desires, dreams and fantasy.
