I think the main difference between Furlong and some of the other men in that community might be that when he was young, he was loved and cared for. He was living in privileged circumstances and the three people who lived there all cared for him and cared well for him. And even though he lost his mother when he was young, she loved him and she minded him.

And people in that house respected each other. And there's a wonderful poem by Philip Larkin called An Arundel Tomb and it concludes with the line, what will survive of us is love. Mm-hmm. And I think that carries over into Bill's personality. Because he wasn't brutalized perhaps the way other people were. Wasn't so hard. Seamus Heaney says we get hurt and get hard.

Thank you for the question. I'm not sure that there is a message I want anyone to take away from the book. I think reading a book is a really personal thing. And whatever you take away from it is all right. And, you know, some people may think this is a story of a fool. I mean, he was born on April Fool's Day and people predicted when he was born that he would turn out to be a fool.

And maybe that's what the story is. Maybe there were clever ways to get done what he got done. Maybe it's a story about love. Maybe it's a story about a marriage falling apart. Maybe it's a story about a man breaking down. But whatever it is, whatever it is, is all right. Because I think your response to a book is deeply personal and shouldn't be interfered with.
