Stay excellent, Emma Thompson:
If you could meet any writer, dead or alive, who would it be? What would you want to know?
I wasn’t sure how to answer this one so I discussed it with my 12-year-old daughter. She suggested Plato. I was impressed. So Plato it is. I think I’d want to ask him how he’d imagine life had changed by 2012.
Have you ever written to an author? Did he or she write back?
I wrote to René Goscinny when I was 7 or 8, a fan letter about Asterix. He wrote back, saying that he was very proud to have made a little English girl laugh.
You’re organizing a literary dinner party and inviting three writers. Who’s on the list?
Sappho, for a bit of ancient gender politics; Aphra Behn for theater gossip; and George Eliot because everyone who knew her said she was fascinating. All women, because they know how to get talking about the nitty-gritty so quickly and are less prone to telling anecdotes. I’d have gone for Jane Austen if I weren’t convinced she’d just have a soft-boiled egg and leave early.
Definitely click through to see what books she’s got on her nightstand.
“I’m not afraid of your evil kind.”
Damn it.
For The Song of Lunch with Alan Rickman. For Miniseries or Movie. At least that’s what the Emmys is implying.
