Interview with ICM Agent Lisa Bankoff 

I liked this interview with Lisa Bankoff talking about the role of the literary agent (her clients include Ann Patchett, Elizabeth Berg, Doug Brinkley, Claire Cook, John Colapinto, Chris Hedges, Laura Kasischke, J. Robert Lennon, and David Lipsky).

from the interview:
"Literary fiction nourishes and provides all the essential vitamins. It sticks to the soul. Commercial fiction is dessert, empty calories, harmless unless overindulged."

I'm intrigued by the site that hosts the inteview, www.webdelsol.com. Anyone know anything more about it?
