| Q: What is the chief argument you would make to someone disinclined to pick up a “werewolf book” as to why they would enjoy this series? A: Would they ignore Frankenstein because they don’t care for monsters? Paradise Lost because they don’t believe in God and the Devil? A Midsummer Night’s Dream because fairies are silly? Not, obviously, that I’m putting myself in such company—but the principle holds. For a less prickly answer: Don’t be fooled by the supernatural surface. These books are about very human experiences: love, sex, death, memory, morality, betrayal, forgiveness, cruelty and compassion. One of the most satisfying reviews I’ve had was from someone who confessed that less than halfway into The Last Werewolf he forgot he was actually reading about a werewolf. Fiction is a funny business: what you end up writing about is what you’re really interested in, whatever your alleged intention. What interests me is the human condition. So far I’ve found it impossible, as a novelist, to be interested in anything else. |
