The ones I write...the summary of all my fears and life and pains and disrupted experiences.
My influences include Virginia Woolf (especially as an essayist), Yasunari Kawabata, the Brontë family, Flaubert.
I really enjoy Daphne du Maurier, Mme de La Fayette, Knut Hamsun, Margaret Mitchell, Voltaire, Hawthorne.
Through narrative deconstruction, I delve into madness, depression, anorexia. I create characters who are able to reach out through the page to bring me into the book and question my creative superiority on them.
