5/10/2023 0 Comments A certain hunger book buy![]() ![]() When I finally started writing, I seized on the ironically distant violence from American Psycho, and here we are.Ĭan you talk about your decision to structure it as a memoir from prison? It immediately called to mind other famous unreliable prison narrators, like Vladimir Nabokov’s Humbert Humbert. “Yeah,” I said, “only I’ll write Love, Prey, Eat, the chick-lit zombie book that no one ever asked for.” The idea sat with me for about six months, and I realized that there was something there, though I didn’t know exactly what. In 2011, my job sent me to live in Italy, and a friend remarked that now I could write my own version of Eat, Pray, Love. I love how you describe the elevator pitch for A Certain Hunger as “ Eat, Pray, Love meets American Psycho.” What brought you to this delicious (ha) combination? ![]()
