Voici une mini-interview de China Mieville. Il parle notamment de la différence entre littérature adulte et jeunesse.

Extrait :
Do you think there’s a huge difference between writing for adults and children? What did you find harder or easier?
China Mieville : Neither is harder or easier, at least not for me, it’s all about getting into the voice of a book, which is hard to do, but if you can do it, and you’re in, then things unlock. The difference is to whom you’re talking, or to whom I’m talking – my 35-year-old-self? My 10-year-old-self? Both at once? And so on. Certainly, I suppose, there’s a difference between writing very particularly with younger or older readers in mind – but I’m not convinced it’s anything like as big as many differences among books ‘for adults’, or indeed ‘for children’. It’s not pointless to focus on it, at all – but neither is it, I think, the most pointful thing one can do.
