[applause] >> i think i met all of you last week. i am not sure. this makes me very nostalgic for my very first ever book events. i am sure you recall the naked concern -- consumer. [laughter] that is a book no one bought. one guide bought it and did not like it because he was the target. but i did get a call one day to do by assigning in lancaster pennsylvania. so i thought my career is on the way. sunday afternoon where you sit at a table with 40 books and expect people to come up in droves and i sat there happily somebody made a plate of chocolate chip cookies as an inducement. i sat there for the first hour and a half and nobody came to talk to me or even made by contact. far from it even looking at the books around three not coming year me. there was something odd. there was but at the hour and a half later i looked up and a woman was coming towards me with the biggest smile now i think now was when it starts to happen. she says how much are the cookies? [laughter] so i want to talk about my book from crown publishing. it is almost universally

i don't know him very well, have never met him. hard for me to personally evaluate. there's not been a lot of talk, at least here in the state so far about this. so it's harder to me to comment on that. -- hard for me to comment on that. >> it sounds to me like you think it's pretty much a long shot unless there's something pretty dramatically changes. >> it's hard to know. i'd have to sit down and talk to him, get to know him, get a better idea what have mr. huntman's about. i don't have that za d.a. at that information, other than what i've read. i think for me it's important for me to meet these folks, it's important for me to sit down with them, it's important for me to see them interacting with the people here and the others that i've mentioned, i've met them all and seen them all interacting and i have a food dwoo -- i have a good feel for them. >> how does that process work? how often are you hearing from these various candidates? i knowou

and i met them in sydney, and i met them in ireland, and i met them in yorkshire. and these were the readers. and once i realized this somehow in my bones, i knew i had a way to proceed. i knew what i was going to do, i was going to write them a book. sounds easy. so i wrote a book for them. it's called "the forgotten waltz." and it is narrated as a woman named gina who is no better than she should be. she engages in a glorious mistake. well, wouldn't you? [laughter] and that man has a daughter. so the same themes that were in the gathering of family love, of biological love, that indescribable thing and sexual love, that often described thing, those two same tensions were in the forgotten waltz as in the gathering. and gina is a, she's what's normally called younger woman, she's what's normally called an older man. both of their marriages break up because this sort of series of mistakes they make, these lustful mistakes turn into a different kind of life for them both, and it's a love story, the book. what was i -- i forgot what the beginning of that sentence was.

marion was one of the most compelling people i had ever met in any country anywhere. she is a woman doctor who practiced medicine all throughout the taliban years and the have seen so many educated women left and she didn't. and she's a major character in the dressmaker because she runs the clinic for the women in the afternoon after she works at the hospital in the morning and she runs this clinic for women all around the neighborhood. and one time i asked her why in the world she had stayed in the time when almost everyone she had left. she said because it's my country and i will not be kicked out. and by the way, if i had left during the taliban years who would have practiced medicine on women because later on one of the tel dan ruled that women could not be male doctors. only women doctors can treat women and if they all were gone who was going to give the women medical care so she's a strong trippi triet as i have ever met. >> host: virginia, go ahead, please. >> guest: >> caller: how are they doing the market analysis? is extracted the community or other certain
