Are people really so shocked by a feminine protagonist in a modern novel? Retro novels and movies are full of them. And there are so many modern women who take pleasure and pride in their looks, sexiness, makeup etc., that this reaction seems quite hypocritical.

@missannabiller I concur. 😉
I was just thinking that it would be interesting to retell Lady Chatterley's Lover from the point of view of the cuckolded wheelchair-bound army veteran husband
@missannabiller This feels pretty on brand for my demographic - maybe also women like me who have escaped and are trying to reckon with why they loved a Bluebeard more than themselves, even just temporarily. Bluebeard is such an intriguing, dark archetype! 🦋
They always say you should write with an audience in mind. I thought the audience of my book was fans of the Gothic, but it might actually be narrower: Women who are trying to escape from a Bluebeard and just need that extra shock to get them to finally leave!!
I found out about an amazing-looking Levantine restaurant in the neighborhood yesterday (I had to look up what Levantine was), and two hours later while reading The Maltese Falcon I saw that Mr. Cairo (played by Peter Lorre in the film) is of Levantine origin. What are the odds?
Time once again for my occasional series 'Women with great hair fleeing gothic houses!' Let's see what's in the library shall we...
How fab! xo

@missannabiller @VersoBooks We loved this book over here
A great novel!
Since #BookTwitter is trending: My novel Bluebeard's Castle is 20% off on Amazon shorturl.at/tLPT2 and at @VersoBooks! shorturl.at/dlmCI I promise you will be suitably scandalized and entertained : )

@cal47536 After decades of making wildly popular high-budget studio films, he took a financial risk and made Psycho. Then the critics pretended he was somehow disreputable, although Psycho was continuous with his other suspense work and similar to what European auteurs were doing.

@missannabiller This is what I tell myself, anyway
@missannabiller Whether people are genuinely shocked or this is just a manbaby infiltration of the whole process, either way these responses are horrifying. It's discouraging on some levels, but we've got to push through and overwhelm these voices with our art at this volatile point in history.
@missannabiller don't sweat these clowns really good art is rarely understood or appreciated right away keep doing the great work we love you for and don't bother with clown ass detractors
@missannabiller Feminism=CIA. Anti-feminism=CIA. Goodreads critics=lolololololololololololo.
@missannabiller i’m excited to read when i get a chance!! i do not care at all about what any goodreads review says, you’re already a genius and your filmography proves that. 💌
@missannabiller It’s interesting. Nabokov tried to write the couple as middle-class Germans, but didn’t know any Germans at that time… so he decided to treat them as common folks living out archetypal and literary situations without truly comprehending that fact.
@missannabiller It’s a sort of answer-book to Anna Karenina and Madame Bovary - and sort of prefigure Les Diaboliques and Elaine May’s A New Leaf. The cuckold has a demonic will-to-live that drains the lovers trying to kill him.
@missannabiller That sounds like an interesting collection, the more so for having nothing to do with Clouzot's movie!
@missannabiller Trust Exercise, btw, is a brilliantly fragmented story of the misfiring passions of a group of 1980s high school drama geeks, and the author, Susan Choi, is half-Asian and half-Jewish, if that piques your interest. It won the National Book Award a few years ago.
@missannabiller More just random titles, though I'd heartily recommend three of them. I haven't actually read The Buried Candelabrum, though I am a big fan of Zweig and have a Jewish atheist's interest in Jewish mythology. It's on my shelf, so someday!
@missannabiller It is. It captures the dark side of '50s Hollywood in all its seedy glory.
@missannabiller I watched Funny Face for the 1st time; after a few scenes my wife said "It's really good if you pretend Anna Biller directed it. You don't have to change anything." And we went into hysterics over and over all through the film, crying "Biller!" Makes it great.
@missannabiller I concur. 😉
@missannabiller Like a Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead version, where all the big scenes in the book happen off stage, we we watch the husband filling time with odd word games and questions... "Life in a box is better than no life at all, I expect. You'd have a chance, at least."
@missannabiller From Ada to the Maltese Falcon. Trying to think what you'll read next. My Face for the World to See? The Buried Candelabrum? The Golden Bowl? Trust Exercise? So many possibilities...
@missannabiller There’s a song called “Ruby Don’t Take Your Love to Town” by Kenny Rogers and the New Edition.
