It was always written in the contract

By Sebastian Ritscher

„As a literary agent (he realised his) talent to mediate between the magic of creation and the creative greed of exploitation.“

„It was always written in the contract that a day would come when the licence ran out.“

John le Carré (1931-2020) in his speech remembering his friend, literary agent Rainer Heumann, former owner of Mohrbooks.
