Waning, us? Never. So what if there’s only an hour left of the day? We weren’t spending all day trying to think of something to write for this third-from-final Daily blog posting. And we’re not counting down the days either. Really we’re not.

So, I hear you ask, what NW-related wonder do you have for us today? The answer, dear reader, is some of the interviews Zadie Smith has given about the novel.

There have been a lot of Q&As, presumably conducted by email like our own interview. Granta has this one. And the New Yorker has this. Here she is in Bookforum.

There’s this at Goodreads. And she’s also on the blog Asylum.

Smith did deign to talk to some people. You can even hear her doing so in this Guardian podcast. And here on BBC Radio 4.

Finally, this is what she had to say to the Daily Telegraph.

Right then: two more days to do, two more days to go.

But like I said, we’re not counting. Oh no, no, no.

By the way, tomorrow we also have our “real-life” book club’s verdict.
