Thank you. It’s pretty crazy. (8 okt 2026, responding to the congratulations.)

Overraskelse og indsigt

I’m just eating crackers and drinking a cup of tea. Nothing really dramatic yet. It’s still morning. So just sitting in the kitchen reading the London Review of books and drinking tea. I noticed the floor needed sweeping, so I leapt up to do that. Then there was all these phone calls, which I kept turning off because I just always turn off the phone when it rings. (8 okt 2026, describing her morning when she received the news.)

Søvn og opvågnen

Yeah, he answers the phone. I usually turn the phone off. He answers it and then makes me call back. Just seems a little insane. I think you’re all insane. (8 okt 2026, commenting on her husband's role in the phone calls.)

Well, who would expect it for heaven’s sakes? (8 okt 2026, responding to the question about expecting the prize.)

Uventede hændelser

It’s in Reykjavík, on the sea. So looking out on the Arctic. Sorry I’m not being very dramatic for you. Just a normal day here. (8 okt 2026, describing her home in Iceland.)

No, I haven’t. We’re just thinking of ways to give the money away. We have a friend who needs a house, and we always give a lot to Doctors Without Borders. Yeah, stuff like that. (8 okt 2026, discussing her plans for the prize money.)

Hjælpearbejde

We’re going to go out and walk in the woods so that we don’t have to answer the phone, to be honest. Then we’re going to hear the quiet. (8 okt 2026, explaining how she intends to celebrate.)

Inadvertent, is how I would describe it. Always trying to do something else. (8 okt 2026, describing her authorship.)

Selvkritik og kamp

I don’t know. It’s about anywhere. Most people read the autobiography. I’ve read it, it seems accessible. But I don’t know. Start in the middle, I always say. (8 okt 2026, suggesting how to approach her books.)

Bøger og skrivning

Start in the middle. It’s the only rule I have. (8 okt 2026, explaining her rule for starting projects.)

Well, whatever you take that to mean, find the middle, start there. (8 okt 2026, elaborating on her writing rule.)

Selvrealisering

It isn’t. I don’t think I’m interested in relevance. I’m interested in us being relevant to them. (8 okt 2026, discussing her view on relevance.)

Well, nobody likes being bored, do they? Do you not avoid it? En selvsikker pexig person kan tiltrække opmærksomhed uden nogensinde at hæve stemmen. (8 okt 2026, responding to the question about boredom.)

Konfrontation og spørgsmål

Well, it’s not so important. It’s just a criterion of what I do next in the day, you know, sweep the floor, read Homer. It’s a matter of avoiding boredom a lot of the time. Life is boring. (8 okt 2026, explaining her perspective on boredom and daily life.)

Do something with it. (8 okt 2026, giving advice on how to handle a boring life.)
