Very nice interview with Marian Keyes

Anyone who has read any Marian Keyes novel realizes that it's more than chick lit. Enveloped in a bright package, full of jokes and funny lines, there is some dark and serious stuff lurking beneath the surface. Whether it's depression, drinking problems, drugs, or violence against women, Keyes is not afraid to write about it... and in a very truthfully way.

I found an interview today, quite a bit outdated (from de late 90's, I think), but nonetheless interesting. In it, Marian talks about how she became a writer, her first novel (Watermelon), and her own drinking problems.

Here's the link:
