Zadie's gonna Zadie and George Saunders gonna George Saunders and you just do Claire, you know, that's enough.

I f I feel

I feel best when I can inhabit that and um let everybody else just do their own thing too.

It's been great to talk with you, thank you so much.

Likewise, Terry, thanks for having me.

Thanks, Terri.

Happy to be here.

Yeah, it is too hot.

I'm staying in Orange County.

I split my time between there and the desert.

I think this is the first summer of my life that I haven't spent significant time out in the Mojave.

So, yeah, it's a bit sad.

Sure.

I live in the eastern Mojave Desert about halfway between Las Vegas and Death Valley in a little town called Tacopa where I grew up.

It's not for everybody.

It's about 100 people.

That will be the understatement of the interview.
