SALON: A.S. Byatt
The author of "Possession" on the dark side of utopia, the chains of literary feminism and the albatross of sex. By LAURA MILLER. A.S. byatt could be the patron saint of bookworms. Already a formidable literary figure in England, byatt achieved bestseller status in America with her 1990 novel
http://www.salon.com/weekly/interview960617.html

Extractions: A.S. Byatt could be the patron saint of bookworms. She describes her often-bedridden child self as having been "kept alive by fictions" mostly the novels of Dickens, Austen and Scott. Among the first women admitted to Cambridge, she has always been a "greedy reader," who weaves her many interests biology, history, philosophy among them into her work. The results are novels with, as she has often stated, "the whole world in them," books that teem with characters and ideas, books in which reading and writing usually prove a matter of life, death and freedom. Already a formidable literary figure in England, Byatt achieved best-seller status in America with her 1990 novel, "Possession: A Romance," a compulsively readable story about a clandestine love affair between two Victorian writers and the two modern-day academics who unearth their secret. Her novella "Morpho Eugenia," in which she examines the similarities between anthills and 19th century manor households, was made into the film "Angels and Insects" last year. Byatt is currently touring the United States to promote "Babel Tower," the third novel in a series that follows Frederica Potter, a bookish, Cambridge-educated young woman like Byatt, through the volatile terrain of mid-20th century England. "Babel Tower" takes place in the 1960s, and concerns two trials: an obscenity prosecution against Frederica's employer (for publishing "Babbletower," an overripe fairy tale of a utopia gone bad) and the heroine's own battle for custody of her son. She spoke with Salon in San Francisco.

http://www.salon.com/08/departments/litchat.html

Extractions: E nglish novelist A.S. Byatt has been described as a "postmodern Victorian." Her novels include the bestseller "Possession" and "Angels and Insects," which was recently made into a movie by director Phillip Haas. In an interview sponsored by San Francisco's City Arts and Lecture Series, Byatt discussed "Angels and Insects," D.H. Lawrence, and the challenges of literary feminism. Tell us about writing "Angels and Insects." I began with a visual image. I wanted to write a story which combined my obsession with television naturalism with my obsession with Victorian gothic. I thought you could make a really beautiful film which compared an ant heap to a Victorian mansion. And in the middle of the ant heap there's this large fat white queen simply producing children. The question is: is she the power center, or is she the slave? It didn't have a plot for a long time it was just this metaphor, which is a very simple one but works. And it got bigger and bigger. I had this vision of all these slightly sexless female servants, scurrying along the corridors of the gothic mansion like the worker ants. I read a lot of books about ant heaps, and a lot of books about Victorian servant life. The pun on "insect" and "incest" only occurred to me very, very late on, as a way of dealing with the plot, though it is, of course, also the case with insects in an ant heap. But then I had this further metaphorical idea that there should be a man who wanted to marry a butterfly and found he'd married the queen of the ants by mistake. He was a Darwinian and a determinist, while her father was desperately clinging to Christianity, and a religious lord of the manor.

Extractions: A practical consequence of this necessarily multiple production process was that those involved in it - authors as well as publishers or printers - could introduce alterations, willingly or unwillingly, at particular stages. In the case of authors, this meant that they were offered the possibility to revise, and thus the chance to realize any second thoughts they might already have developed relating to what they had written only a short time ago (or third thoughts, rather, in case of a preceding serialization or any other form prior to book publication). In the case of publishers and printers, this usually meant (apart from attempts at outright censorship) that spelling and punctuation could be made to conform to either British or American practice or to any kind of publishing-house style, for example the alteration of '-is-' and '-our' (as in 'realise' and 'labour') to '-iz-' and '-or', respectively, or the change from single to double quotation marks as indication of direct speech.

Extractions: The Chinese Lobster Genre Short Story (43 pp.) Keywords Body Self-Image Eating Disorder Power Relations Suicide ... Women's Health Summary This is a story of the interactions of an art student and her assigned mentor, with whom she is at odds, and the interactions of the mentor with a university professor who has been given the task of arbitration between the student and the mentor. The problem for the student and the mentor is that they have totally divergent views of Matisse as a painter of women's bodies. The mentor sees these paintings as beautiful but they are abhorrent to the student, who has developed an eating disorder as part of her rebellion against the emphasis on female pulchritude. The painting "La Porte Noire" is used to describe the mentor's great admiration for Matisse's amazing use of color.
