"suddenly the writer had liberated the story from the novel"

[Ya Sam]

If there is nothing related to the possible next book, I mean, If he really 
has to do everything from scratch, will he embark on a novel-writing project 
in his seventies? If we're talking about another doorstop, it is unlikely, 
if it will be something short, like Lot 49, well, of course it's possible. 
But there is always a chance that he has something up his sleeve. Anyway, 
it's all guesswork. But even if it is his last novel, literature does not 
stop, at least not for me.
