Will Self: ‘The novel is absolutely doomed’ | Books | The Guardian – The writer I read more than any other after Kelman and Carver is Will Self, so I’m going to read this and take it in. Is there a writer you follow and how does their work inspire you?

  1. I’ve read that article and it occurs to me that people (writers?) have been predicting the death of the novel for about one hundred and fifty years. He lists Trainspotting as the last and only novel of recent times that has caused a stir — I can think of a few more, some good and some that are terrible, so maybe he was having a bad day when he gave that interview?
