The thriller from Manila

Article Abstract:

Novelist Alex Garland builds up themes in his mind for some time before he begins writing. He regards themes as paramount, with the stories merely illustrating the theme. His background is in comic strips, and he takes a cinematic approach. He feels that he still has a lot to learn, and welcomes the fact that he has been given the opportunity to continue writing. He recognizes that his reputation may fade as easily as it has grown.
