A line from Reading Lolita in Tehran in part goes, "...the instinctive urge to struggle with the 'wrong shape of things...'" And Zadie Smith has said what attracts her to great novels is their messiness and the way great writers fail. It's all related, the more we take risks, the more we grow. No stress, it's natural.
