dickens never let anything like that happen. when dickens wanted to write nicholas nickleby about notorious schools in the west of england where parents would park their children they didn't want around, he went out there as a parent, pretending to be a parent, in such a place and spent today and soaked up the atmosphere, the beginning scene of nicholas nickleby. let's come forward in time to john steinbeck, the fifth nobel prize winner in literature. he does one for the novel the grapes of wrath, is -- the family was trapped in one of these labor camps in california and went through hell. and joined the staff of san francisco news, a valued reason to go around these labor camps, so much farmland wiped out by the tremendous drought known as the dust bowl, he bought an old truck, put in some clothes or food and would go from one camp to another. many were from oklahoma, some of them working for $0.12 a day. he came upon a family of four living under a carpet, a lean to out of hubcaps and grass, a gigantic bird's nest. had two mis

how do you think some -- de tocqueville or dickens coming to america today would view it and how different is it? >> i can say how i view it, i lived in the u.s. for a very long time, fareed and worked in the u.s. i think my views are similar to others. the united states is more and more like other rich countries, that american exceptionalism is -- it a large extent a thing of the past. the united states faces the same challenges, whether it is the covid pandemic or now the economic concession or contraction, whether it is challenges having to do with violence, with dressing iss iads of race that plagued the united states now for 400 years. in a sense, if you have a leader in the united states who looks a lot or acts a lot like jair bolsonaro in brazil or erdogan in turkey or duterte in the philippines, well, that american exceptionalism of the past is sort of over. and i think that is something that a lot of people all over the world are really noticing for the first time perhaps. >> i was wondering how the current discussions that centered around not just black lives matter, but the cond

you probably noticed the three books i have mentioned, melville's moby dick, was war and peace and dickens great expectations are all novels, works of fiction and its commonly accepted in the world of literature at asense of place is important .vital in fact will work of fiction is to endure. it goes withoutsaying . i think a sense of place is just as important in nonfiction. that is i must say part of the belief that i have that the entire quality, the entire level of writing, the sense of place and not just the sense of place but the choice of words, the finding of the right word, the perfect word, the precise test word, the finding of the right rhythm to put the words into is just as important in nonfiction. i feel that for a work of biography to endure, the quality of its pros must be on the same level as a novel that indoors. every so often i have to say i find myself wondering if this belief of mine is correct. so a couple of summers ago i did the following thing. i took the long historical novel war and peace which i considered most like a long historical work of nonfiction and i to
