being a woman writer

"I think in women's lives writing has certainly changed the world that I know and I think the world worldwide has changed. Because when I've travelled abroad, I've noticed there is a community of women around world who have read some of same books, who've written in response to those books and you can feel at home in any country of the world where you can communicate because of this experience of reading one another's writing."
