the motive Byatt: I think there are two motives, one large and one small. Little motivation is the "possession" of the word. I was at the British Library Research poet Coleridge, from Canada to have a very well-known scholar Coleridge bought his diary. In circulation at the library, where she read some of the books, I looked at her and thought possessed by ghosts, witchcraft thing. I think she was attached to the body of Coleridge, or do Coleridge attached to her body, because all her thoughts are about him. I am such a person's life lost in another person's mental state is very interested. This is an origin. Another is that I was teaching English at a university course in London, I think the writers and scholars are very possessive, and I put myself as a writer and not a scholar, I am grateful to the tension which interest. In fact,nike free 3.0 v4 for sale
there is a third reason. I do not know whether you know the traditional British Academy novels, like Malcolm Bradbury, David Lodge, who wrote the novel, I do not know what the reason, if you want to write a novel about college, you must put it into a comedy. You can not let anyone in college really care about literature, they must all be stupid, I do not know why we must do. I wanted to write a novel of the college, where literature is true for them, above all literature for them. These are the reasons for me to write this novel. I did want to write it as a novel of the French experiment, you will read about college life, but does not read poetry, poetry will be hidden beneath the surface of academic research. Then one day, I read Umberto Eco's novel. I said to myself, no, do not use the kind of delicate French wording, but to use that much of the comedy, detective fiction style of writing, because that would make it more interesting. Then I began to write plays all kinds of detective novels imitation, it progressed very slowly; fact, I started writing this book three

years ago, twelve before it has had this idea, because I have four children, in addition to To teach, it has not been written.Beijing News: It is not because it is difficult to write a book Byatt: but mainly because I do not have time to think about it. All my books are difficult to write, and I like to take a long time to think, I like the process of thinking.Beijing News: This book's title Possession can have different meanings. As far as I know, in English, it has at least two meanings: one is "possessed" (bewitched), one is "possession." The Chinese only to capture the "possession" This layer of meaning.Byatt: Of course it is also one layer of meaning, people who nike free 5.0 v4 for sale
buy other books and articles. In fact, there is a third layer of meaning in English, in the "Bible", possession means "sex", a man to a woman's sexual possession. I was only aware of it after, I think this one could have possession between lovers, there can occupy between two dead lovers, there are two alive lover "possession" of the two dead lover. Because this one has three meanings, so the translator could not put three basic meanings are expressed.Beijing News: So they have to make a choice.Byatt: Yes.British writer Byatt: We live on the "sex" overly obsessed society"Twilight of the Gods" Chongqing Publishing House in August 2012 edition, Byatt participate in the "Restatement of the Myth," the latest work project

writing.About "love" them carefully managed with love, but no longer talkMy three daughters are very carefully for love and not with the "love" word. I think after this generation is not the same, with the differentiation between them, people see celebrities living in the newspapers, their life is money and romantic love, they are very bad. I do not know the situation where you are not, we have a culture about celebrities. I have a granddaughter in her very small you later when we asked her to do, she said I was going to New York as a celebrity.Beijing News: There is this passage in "possession", you say Michelle Roland and Maud Bailey, "nike free run 3 uk was born in an era of distrust of love and cultural atmosphere," "love, romantic love, totally romantic , but in turn generates a set of sexual language, linguistics lust, analysis, anatomy, deconstruction, exposure. " Feelings that between Roland and Maud slow progress seems to be absent, misgivings. I think in a way, we are in the era of mistrust and cultural atmosphere of love grew up in a generation. This is why you go to write a book about the reasons for the intense, Victorian romance novels do Byatt: Yes, I think this is the main reason I wrote this book. Kind of love is almost gone. I want to be a lot of things when they were forbidden love is possible. When you love a not your husband or wife who is wrong at the time. Love becomes
