I guess when you’re prescient and well-spoken, people want to talk with you. Ian McEwan talks about his book Saturday and the London Bombings at Der Spiegel (I believe that’s German for “the spiegel”) and The Morning News (both links from Bookslut).

Speaking of prescient… Some talk about the bombings indicates that the bombers may be Muslims born and raised in England. Zadie Smith’s book White Teeth (love me some Zadie Smith) hinted at something similar, although on a much smaller scale.
