Booker Prize 2019 TBR: Lucy Ellmann's Evolution.
"The greater the genius, the greater the suffering", said my namesake Samuel Beckett. Do you need to have a lot of heartbreaks and disappointments to become a novelist of genius? Well, one of the hottest novelists of the moment is Lucy Ellmann. It had taken her thirty years of talent and persistence to get this far. My new video explores her evolution from a writer of slender, experimental stories to the most groundbreaking, bonkers novel of this decade!

Robert Mckee interview with Jonathan Fields
"It takes ten or twenty years of living to have anything to say... Writers of full length story works (major plays for Broadway, great screenplays, great novels) don't really achieve [anything great] at least until they are in their 40s because it took them 15 years or more to master the art form and it took 20 years of adult life to have any real insight in to life."

“It has taken me all that time to find my voice,” she says. “I had yelled and screamed before but I don’t think I had spoken to men and felt free to say what I want. Now I can raise theories about prehistoric utopias and vulva worship and actually be listened to!”
Lucy Ellman in February 2013. (The Scotsman)
