Fascinating interview with Michael Moorcock on the occasion of his turning 75, rambling through "real" genre, sexual culture, gender politics, Tolkien...
Back then, I was unaware of gender politics, he confesses. We simply didnt have the vocabulary to deal with those inequalities. When I think about it now, I was able to live and write because of someone who later turned out to be a prolific writer, who wrote a couple of bestsellers. But she didnt write anything apart from the odd short story until after I left. You have to address that and you think, Christ, I was a bastard.
