Bookseller:
You call yourself a writer? Modern American writing started with Huckleberry Finn, dummy. Howard Prince:
It did? Bookseller:
Hemingway said that. How about Hemingway? You're low on the moderns - Faulkner, Sherwood Anderson, Fitzgerald. Howard Prince:
All right, give me - give me two Hemingways and a Faulkner. Bookseller:
Faulkner. Hemingway, There we are. The Russians - "Brothers Karamazov". No more Dostoyevsky? Howard Prince:
What else you got? Bookseller:
"Diary of a Writer". Howard Prince:
Oh, yeah? I can use that
