W：So Robert，I guess you must be well into your third decade as a writer.How is life treating you？
M：Fourth decade as a writer.Hmm，let me get my calculator out.Well，I guess I've been writing novels since the 1980s.So you're right.But I have been writing all my life.And to answer your question，life has been treating me excellently.
W：Can I ask you about your childhood？Were you a bookish child？
M：In a strange way，I was a non﹣reader until I turned nine.I used to play basketball in the schoolyards of Brooklyn.My father was a high school teacher of physics and chemistry.And he was a big reader.He would bring books back from his high school library.One day，I read the last chapter of a book，the title of which I've long since forgotten.I liked it so much that I started reading the remainder.Interestingly，I read the chapters backwards until I got to the beginning.I really loved the experience，and I soon became an eager reader.Then my father would bring piles of books home from the library.And I would read them all，and they were all fiction.I must add that I started reading the books from the start，as opposed to working backwards.
