Interview #144: Elf Fantasy Fair - Aan’allein, Entry #2

Robert Jordan

Fantasy is the literature of hope. In fantasy there is a belief that you can make a difference. Today may be bleak, but you can live through today. And tomorrow will be better. And maybe there’ll be a different darkness tomorrow, but you can live through that, too, and you can make the light come, and the darkness go away. It doesn’t matter how many times the darkness comes. There is always hope for something better. I think that that is the central core running through fantasy. And having said that…I have to apologize, by the way, I didn’t get a lot of sleep last night. I’m a bit groggy, a bit punchy. And I’m trying very hard to hold on to my thoughts and to my line of reasoning and not go off on strange and awful tangents. I think what I’m going to do now is ask who would like to ask me a question.
