Now, listen to Part Two of the interview.
M: So, you are interested in women, language, and of course other things just in that time?
W: Just in that time, yes. And with—(6)it’s not just the Irish, but the Irish do have a propensity for saying less than they mean. So to capture what’s going on inside her life, but also what the world around her is keeping her from seeing and saying.
M: And did she unfold for you as you wrote? Or did you know going in that there—was where this was going to end, her story?
W:(7)She very much unfolded for me. And this is the first time in my writing career that I wrote a novel mostly in third person, and then very, very close to finishing the novel, I thought, no one’s listening to her and neither is her author.
M: Really?
W:(8)I need to give her the first person. I need to let her tell her own story that directly. M- Really? So you went back and rewrote the story in the first...
W: I went back.(9)And I’m always telling my students, don’t—don’t worry so much about third person, first person. It doesn’t make that much difference.
M: Just for you as a writer, when you’re writing something that isn’t—it doesn’t grab the reader by the throat because of the—you know, we’re waiting breathlessly for the big how did she get to be so famous or something like that.
W: Right. Exactly.
M: You have to do it through the writing.
W: Right.
M: You have to do it through beautiful sentences, which is what you do.
W: That’s what one hopes. We are surrounded by story. Story is very accessible to us, more so than ever. (10)But what I think literary fiction is raising the level of the sentence to be as important as the story the sentence tells. The rhythm, the beauty, the music of it is as important as character and plot.
M: OK, thanks a lot for sharing so much with us! I really appreciate that!
W: My pleasure. I enjoy being here!
