Tom Stoppard Quotes

I Have Three Copies Of The First Edition, Which Sold In Double Figures, Speaking Loosely; There Was A Moment When Blond's 'Lord Malquist And Mr Moon' Sold 67 Copies, Or Some Such Number, In Venezuela - A Mystery I Never Solved. I Have Never Been To Venezuela. I Remember Going Into Foyles' Bookshop In 1966 And Being Gratified To See A Stack Of Malquist-and-Moons On The New Fiction Table. I Counted Them; There Were Twelve. A Week Or Two Later I Went In Again; There They Were. I Counted Them Again; There Were Thirteen! I Saw At Once What Was Happening. People Were Leaving My Book At Bookshops.
