Megan Abbott Zitate

I wrote my graduate thesis at New York University on hard-boiled fiction from the 1930s and 1940s, so, for about two years, I read nothing but Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, James Cain and Chester Himes. I developed such a love for this kind of writing.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich habe meine Abschlussarbeit an der New York University über hartgesottene Fiktion aus den 1930er und 1940er Jahren geschrieben. Ich habe also ungefähr zwei Jahre lang nichts anderes gelesen als Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, James Cain und Chester Himes. Ich habe eine solche Liebe zu dieser Art von Schreiben entwickelt.

When I first read the story 'Guts' in workshop - my fellow writers that I've been meeting with for almost 20 years - they laughed; they didn't have any kind of shock reaction.

One of the more depressing things about reading your fiction 25 years later, or 10 years later, is you realize the only things going on are things you made go on. Strange and interesting and new and wonderful things don't happen. It's the book you wrote; that's all.

I started taking singing classes just two years ago. It was great. I never knew I could sing but I kind of found my voice.

It was in New York, and I've always wanted to film in New York. And the writer was a teenage friend of mine. We did youth theatre together when we were 16 and always had a dream of making a film together. And ten years later, we've done it. So it's great.

One of the things I love about 'Rubicon' is I really recognize the New York City that they're depicting in it, having lived here for 15 years.
