Gracias WildcatIsle. What a wonderful interview! The French interviewer did an excellent job drawing out so much information from Annie.

I love the way she described her creative process. It reminds me of Michaelangelo working with marble, the sculpture is released from the marble, just like the story is revealed from the landscape.

I will have to watch it multiple times, there is so much treasure in the long video.

Thanks so much for posting the video, WildcatIsle.

It is great and I like the part where she said she enjoys being alone and not feeling lonely. To me, that is very liberating personally.

Annie Proulx

Thanks, WcI, for posting this interview. I found it of great interest. However, it ended very abruptly so I  was wondering if there's a continuation of it somewhere in which, maybe, she talks about Brokeback Mountain? That I'd especially like to see. Also, do you have a date for interview? Anyway, thanks again for posting.

O my gravy. Gracias amigo! That's a wonderful interview. Annie was so articulate and eloquent describing her creative process, and I am only ten minutes into it. I will have to watch it over and over. There is something about Charlie Rose that allows usually shy laconic people to open up to him.

AP looks great and relatively young in the video.
