He tells a story, and that's what I like. Does this fella tell a story? He doesn't spend twenty pages describing the colour of the sky?''He hasn't so far.''Good. Jeffrey Archer never talks about the colour of the sky and I like that in a writer. I'd say Jeffrey Archer has never even looked up at the sky his entire life.''Especially now that he's in prison,' I suggested.

The excerpt highlights a preference for storytelling that is direct and concise. The speaker appreciates a writer like Jeffrey Archer, who doesn't dwell on unnecessary details such as the sky's color, but instead focuses on telling a compelling story.

The conversation humorously suggests that Archer’s straightforward style might stem from limited sky-gazing, especially given his imprisonment. Overall, the emphasis is on valuing narrative substance over superficial descriptions in literature.
