Summary

The author navigates the tension between his child's desire to be a pirate and the hunter's pursuit of his quarry, advocating for the union of candour and ardour in a solitary artist. He critiques his own craft as cramped and driven by both eyes and temper, yet his dedication to study transforms his petty characters into "moving mountains" of power. This relentless work on page by page, driven by pleasure and his own loves, reveals that his life's material is merely a tributary to his creative life, allowing him to explore every aspect of his convictions through a door he has longed to open.
