He
has often said that
TC Boyle is
not a friend of
Donald Trump's
politics.
In an interview a few months ago, the author wanted the left-wing Democrat
Elizabeth Warren to
be the presidential candidate.
With novels like "Wassermusik", "Dr. Sex", "Drop City", "America" or most recently "Licht" and numerous short stories, Boyle is considered one of the
most productive writers in
the
USA
.
Boyle lives near Santa Barbara, north of LA Here he describes what he feels when
forests are on fire
again:
