Jeanette Winterson
  • I live alone, with cats, books, pictures, fresh vegetables to cook, the garden, the hens to feed.

  • Art saved me it got me through my depression and self-loathing, back to a place of innocence.

  • If you continually write and read yourself as a fiction, you can change what's crushing you.

  • I don't write for any group. I write to bring about a change in consciousness.

  • I don't read reviews because by then it's too late - whatever anyone says, the book won't change. It is written.
