Edna O'BrienEdna O'Brien
Jérôme de Missolz takes us to London and to Ireland in search of a writer: Edna O'Brien. Notebook, pen and mysterious jottings. Obsession and devotion to writing which gave meaning to her life. Together, they discuss the abandonment of Ireland, her attraction to the 20th century authors to whom she owes everything: Chekhov, Joyce, Faulkner. Ireland, O'Briens's main source of inspiration, permeates all her novels with the inescapable weight of religion and the vision of her wounded, lovelorn heroines. A wonderful storyteller, O'Brien is herself like a character out of a novel.
