Her face reminds me of Olivia Rodrigo

Grown up author reading their book to a grown up audience is, to me, weird.

My favorite author ❤

I’m feeling I’m close

Loved the interaction. Appreciate you both! Exceptional talent ❤

This was great.

love Ben whishaw speaking voice and I am a huge fan of him and his acting and love his British accent

I’m confused. Is a novel or a memoir? It reads like a memoir and the author speaks of it like a memoir but it’s called a novel. How is it fiction? The question about his use of vernacular and literary French is very interesting and lost in translation. I just finished reading Ernesto a 1953 novel by Italian poet and writer Umberto Saba who wrote it in similar way using the various lingos of his Trieste community but again lost in translation.

Absolute Bliss!

Is it just his bad reading, or the bad english translation or just the demand to get invested in this totally uninteresting text that makes me not interested in Knausagard?

Immensely interesting video, thank you!

This is by far the best interview with Knausgård I have seen so far. Thanks for asking some challenging questions (Yes I know I'm 9 years late)

I congratulate those who (for many good reasons) choose not to bring children into this world. I am 62. I decided not to father any children at 18 (when I was living in Ankara, Turkey). I am proud that I remained vocal about my opposition to human population growth. (I hope to plant many trees, edible plants, and enable whales, elephants, tigers, pandas, cheetahs, ... to propagate.)

This is the first interview I've watched of Sally's and I'm so in awe of how full her humanity is. She is just incredible. (The hosts facial expressions during Q&A were iconic too ahaha!)

So wonderful thank you

I'm thinking of making an archive of Auster's readings of his books. Anyone who has any idea how it should be done, hit me up

if I were you, I wouldnt call it as ''secret''.

k d lang has let himself go

For anyone interested, that feeling of smoking strong pipe tobacco is a lot like smoking pot the way it’s smoked in the UK/Europe. Mixing it (pot) with tobacco (the ‘spliff’) kills the psychoactive effect and gives this powerful headrush/nausea. It’s also kinda like smoking a cigarette when you haven’t for years.

I think about a GND almost every day. This is such a great talk.

I'd love to see Melvyn Bragg sit down again with Tom Jones, what would be 24 years since the Southbank show special about Tom Jones life and career.

Superb chat - a pleasure to watch

Top notch interview

Sin duda alguna, Fernanda Melchor es uno de los más grandes escritores del XXI.

ugh authors too full of themselves. Frances saying "im not interested at all in what Lawrence says about sex". How dry and insipid. I guess one experiences literature from within the context of ones own mind and experiences. Sorry you dont like sexx! the last commenter voiced the confused reaction of the audience, speakers just trying to show off their erudition than focus on the essence of what makes Lawrence an incredible writer

Hilary is endlessly wonderful!

The only thing that I would disagree with her on is that we don’t have control over our destinies because of what happens to us, or that certain relationships will impact us forever. I come from an abusive home and have worked very hard in therapy to not live the life I was “destined” to because of all the pain and suffering I was experiencing. Of course it still impacts me, but I don’t think we are doomed to whatever life contrives for us. I think we have power over who we become to a fairly large degree.

Thank you for sharing this. A real treat.

" I mean my own life is obviously very mundane" A well read articulate woman going places saying this is really cool❤

I think this is quite close to the Lacanian point that "all desire is a desire for love"

I come back every couple of weeks to see if she's finished yet and... if anyone cares about all that stupid unsolicited bullshit

What do you think his dream state was suggesting when the Fox says "...you're going to ruin 'Us'"? Curious if anyone has a take on it

Lets create a realm in the supernatural, through spiritual leyer to disconect our concerns from where they ground their identity. There are so many mysteries in the Universe, do many layers to tune in. You will still ve here, but at the same time you will reach a place where everything makes sense.

Nice to meet you, ma-am, by the way, thank you for being here.

Are we negotiating?

It's the 2020s and you realize that girls being beaten for sexual satisfaction with an object sentimental to their childhood is a literary trope, and you wonder, jesus what ever happened to them just drowning...

Not funny.

I have just finished reading the book in French. What a great book and what an ordeal this talented young writer had to go through. Je te souhaite que le meilleur Eddy😘

Dont stay with your wife dude she had sex with the yoga instructor

Just wonderful. We are so starved for this sort of discussion, so loving and respectful of Lawrence and of each other. Stunning, charming, funny, stimulating. Great.

Attention seekers should not be ridiculed it is a mental need to let the world know that you exist and they will claim to have been abducted by aliens or that they are time Travellers to be in the limelight for their 15 minutes of fame. But who should be ridiculed are the millions of gullible people out there who lack the insight to see them for what they are. And believe their bullshit story,s

Who’s the nervous suit?

To be fair, Will did say that he was completely monged out with a pipe full of tobacco, not stoned, but this event does get slightly tedious towards the end of the questions, when it seems to turn into a contest between the lung doctor and Will. Gregor begins to look quite disgruntled. Hitler was a vegetarian. Isn't that a bit weird. ❤

Paul-sorry…

This interview is a feast of the English language! Such nuance and depth- Thankyou Tom and Ben

this seems like an excuse for Chris Oakley to blabble on to appear smart or something. Is this an interview or a debate? Chris is very eager to have his ideas known

I discovered him in Woody s movies and was amazed about is very good and unique playing in a such intelligent way. This man and his family are so interesting, he deserves more fame. I ll read these books. Best regards from France.

Not one of the two have slipped the Salmon through.Shameless in dungarees & ridiculous in the fire of pinched knowingness.This is so bad it verges on the wrong way of walking through mud.
