He could be reading straight out of a math textbook and it'd still be mesmerizing. Its not often you get someone who can communicate so well both written and spoken, but Neil has apparently ascended the mortal plane and is no longer subject to the limitations of humanity.
Yes, i even suspect she played fool deliberately, as if she did not know the title in Swedish. translation is pretty literal, so she could have made it up on spot. but this is good trick by interviewer - play stupid so's interviewee appears smarter; even when he really is very smart. :) accidental or deliberate here, whatever.
@@matias9423 swedish is second official language in Finland, btw :) (i am also neighbour of Finland) even though not many native speakers. except in some regions.
I really loved The Graveyard Book and the retell of Hansel and Gretel. Gaiman is so right. The famines in the 100 year war were horrific . Humperdinks opera makes that really clear.
I watched till the end. Extremely disappointed that no one wanted to tell Neil that he dropped his paper when he was showing people his books. Always love listening to what he has to say and it's true about those stories where they are trying to escape, thing is, we now have such a thing on video now and I've seen a father and son with their dog try to leave ukraine in their van. It was a very sad video and it doesn't end well. The son was recording the whole thing on his phone until the phone stopped recording.
I started by listening to him read the book, then talking. i drew while listening, and after an hour, i realized i had been listening to someone talk for an hour. .-. so glad I did ^-^
Neverwhere was the first Gaiman book I read after viewing the TV series of 6 . Brilliant . Have since read Graveyard Book Stardust Hänsel and Gretel American Gods Norse mythology and many others . Fantasy is such a good way to explore the values of the real world
