"I have a long history with the Basque language, one that is conflictive, difficult and rich. I owe a lot to this language I don’t speak, but that is strictly speaking my mother tongue, and my grandmothers’ tongue on both sides. French is my writing language and usual speaking language, but my family was indeed tri-lingual: Basque, Spanish and French." Marie Darrieussecq, during a conference at Donostia (Saint Sébastien) Donostia, 2016, European Capital of Culture, 13 Decembre 2016, published in the trilingual collective.
"I need fiction to see the world better. It’s a bit like when you want to look at the stars: there are some you can’t see when you’re looking right up to the sky, because you have to see it from aside to grasp it better with your eyes. This slanted glance allows us to incorporate the whole world simultaneously. And that’s a good definition of what fiction is for me. Like a step aside that helps us to see things better." Interview with Nathalie Crom, Télérama, August 2007
