Entrevista a Helen Davis, autora de Evita.
How much time have you been writing? Why did you start writing?
I have been writing since I was a child and I started writing because I felt that many of my creative ideas needed to be expressed and shared with others, not kept to myself.
Why are all your novels based on a female character?
I identify with females and I feel that often the women in history are defined as their relations to the men in their lives. Whose wife or daughter or mother they were. I try to give voices to these women as complex characters and not merely attached to the men in their lives. They say behind every great man is a great woman and I like to bring these great women out of the shadows.
Who are the writers that inspire you? And why?
Jean Plaidy’s ‘Queens of England’ series was the inspiration for me telling my stories in the first person and trying to get inside their heads as though they are confidantes. J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis have inspired me both in terms of fantasy and faith. Philippa Gregory gave me some much needed inspiration at the start of my career. Michelle Moran intrigued my desire to research ancient Egypt and pursue my passion for France. Margaret George’s ‘The Memoirs of Cleopatra’ inspired my desire for my CLEOPATRA UNCONQUERED series.
You wrote a book about Isabella the Catholic before. Now you have written about Eva Perón. Why have you chosen these protagonists? Leer más Entrevista a Helen Davis
