“I’ve been cancelled, basically, by the Chilmark Library. That has resulted in lots of people in Chilmark calling me and calling the library and saying, ‘We’re being deprived of Alan’s annual speech.'”

😁'witz to Isaac Chotiner 

“Not one single person has contacted me to complain that they haven’t had a chance to hear Alan speak.”--Ebba Hierta, Chilmark Library director.

"The audiences are being deprived of my voice as the result of a deliberate cancellation decision. So it’s not me who’s being cancelled. It’s the audiences who are being cancelled. ...The same thing is true of the Martha’s Vineyard book fair. Every year, I was invited to speak at the Martha’s Vineyard book fair. Suddenly it stopped when I defended the Constitution on behalf of Trump."

“We have who we think are the most important writers.”--Martha’s Vineyard Book Festival to The New Yorker.
