Jefferson Mays Zitate

I'm kind of a reluctant Anglophile. My mother's a children's librarian, and all of the children's literature I read was from her childhood - E. Nesbit and Dickens, which isn't children's literature at all, but I was sort of steeped in English literature. I thought I was of that world.

Ich bin irgendwie ungern anglophile. Meine Mutter ist Kinderbibliothekarin und die gesamte Kinderliteratur, die ich gelesen habe, stammte aus ihrer Kindheit - E. Nesbit und Dickens, was gar keine Kinderliteratur ist, aber ich war ein bisschen in der englischen Literatur. Ich dachte, ich wäre von dieser Welt.

I went to University College London and read English literature, then realised if you were interested in story and narrative, film was the way to go.

My father is a poet. He's a literary giant of this country - writes in Hindi - and also quite unique because he has a Ph.D. in English Literature. He taught at Harvard University, which is one of the most prominent universities in the country.

I'd studied English literature at university, but I was also far more enamored with Virginia Woolf, Katherine Mansfield, and James Joyce. That was my passion.
