This is the second part of a conversation with writer Susana Moreira Marques, in which she reveals how she relates to the principles that are at the origin of her texts, books, and editorial projects.
The author reflects on the current state of journalism and emphasizes the importance of literature that provides time to think and listen to others, in contrast to the haste and superficiality that frequently characterize current media.
As for the challenges posed by technology, Susana Moreira Marques says she is distressed to see writers who write books as if they were machines, and journalists who do the same. The author expresses concern about the automation of the creative process and journalistic writing.
At the end of the interview, Susana Moreira Marques leaves some advice: "Let us not imitate machines," arguing that good literature is a way of not forming quick opinions and of not closing ourselves off to a single point of view.
