Claire Kilroy: ‘My moral compass has turned 180 degrees on Lolita’

This article is more than 4 months old

The Irish author on the allure of Nabokov, the comfort of Yeats and the power of Winnie-the-Pooh

Claire KilroyFri 26 Jul 2024 11.00 CESTShare

My earliest reading memory Anna Sewell’s Black Beauty when I was about eight or nine, sitting in the back of my mother’s parked Mini one hot summer’s day, my legs burning on the red vinyl seat, and bawling because they were putting the bearing rein on Ginger. I learned two things: empathy for living creatures and the power of the first-person narrator.

My favourite book as a child Marvin K Mooney Will You Please Go Now! by Dr Seuss. I used to play it like a game, sliding up and down the various crazy contraptions with Marvin. It never got old. But I did.

The book that changed me as a teenager There were a few but I’ll say James Joyce’s Ulysses because it was so connected to my sense of self worth. Ireland felt like a hopeless place when I was growing up. Our geography book taught us that we were the sick man of Europe. My generation, like all the generations before me, was raised for export. We were cheap labour, of little worth. But we could write. We were artists. Art may have been all we had, but what a thing to have.

The writer who changed my mind I’m not a black and white person, I don’t adopt fixed positions, so I’m not sure I have a mind to be changed so much as illuminated. Beloved by Toni Morrison is incredible. It dramatises – literally – the psychic violence and intergenerational trauma that can be wreaked upon a people.

The book that made me want to be a writer I don’t remember ever not wanting to be a writer but I do remember a person I knew publishing a book and saying to me, “If I can do this, anyone can.” And I thought, “Well, that’s true … ”

The book I reread Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. I first read it at 16 and cannot overstate the impact the prose had on me. That beginning! That middle! That end! I have read it five or six times now and it charts the 180-degree turn my moral compass has performed. At 16, I was cheering on the love story. Now, I read it as the slow assassination of a child.

The authors I could never read again I dutifully read too many of those entrants to the Great American Novel competition – I’m thinking of Philip Roth and John Updike in particular. I wouldn’t say I enjoyed or even particularly admired them when I was younger but my position has definitely hardened against them. They hoovered up all the attention. Everyone was reading Milan Kundera in the 90s and saying he was amazeballs. His depiction of women creeped me out, and not in a Martin Amis way where the point is that this guy is a creep.

The book I discovered later in life AA Milne’s Winnie-the-Pooh. I didn’t read it as a child. However, I read it to my own child thinking it was going to be a cute story about forest animals but wow, yeah, I had to choke out that last page.

The book I am currently reading Liars by Sarah Manguso. Manguso presents a multitude of clipped, precise observations of a toxic marriage, not complete scenes or set pieces in themselves but literary pointillism, so that when you step back and behold the whole picture … Jesus, Semtex in a book jacket.

My comfort read The Collected Poems of WB Yeats. Again, connected to the idealism of youth and the discovery of this path that saved me from emigration or book-keeping or whatever girls like me were supposed to do, but now his words are even more of a comfort. How terrifyingly easy it is to lose your self in middle age. I recite a few lines to calm myself at times of stress and distress: “Love fled, and paced upon the mountains overhead, and hid his face amid a crowd of stars.”

I would like to appreciate a few dozen people and a couple companies.

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, R.K.O Radio Pictures Inc, R•C•A•Victor "High Fidelity" Sound System, Walt Disney, David Hand, Perce Pearce, William Cottrell, Larry Morey, Ben Sharpsteen, Hamilton Luske, Fred Moore, Vladimir Tytla, Norman Ferguson, Charles Philippi, Tom Codrick, Hugh Hennesy, Gustaf Tenggren, Terrell Stapp, Kenneth Anderson, Mc Laren Stewart, Kendall O'Conner, Harold Miles, Hazel Sewell, Samuel Armstrong, Mique Nelson, Phil Dike, Merle Cox, Ray Lockrem, Claude Coats, Maurice Noble, Ted Sears, Richard Creedon, Otto Englander, Dick Rickard, Earl Hurd, Merrill De Maris, Dorothy Ann Blank, Webb Smith, Albert Hurter, Joe Grant, Frank Churchill, Leigh Harline, Paul Smith, Frank Thomas, Les Clark, Dick Lundy, Fred Spencer, Arthur Babbitt, Bill Roberts, Eric Larson, Bernard Garbutt, Milton Kahl, Grim Natwick, Robert Stokes, Jack Campbell, James Algar, Marvin Woodward, Al Eugster, James Culhane, Cy Young, Stan Quackenhush, Joshua Meador, Ward Kimball, Ugo D'Orsi, Woolie Reitherman, George Rowley and Robert Martsch.

Without these people, companies and systems Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs wouldn't be a thing and wouldn't exist. So really I appreciate these people and things so much.

Charles Lloyd in London

The London Jazz News’s Geoff Winston reviews Charles Lloyd’s August 1 opening at Ronnie Scott’s Club in London. His unrelenting innovation and improvisational spirit seem unstoppable and that’s a good thing. This quintet with regulars Reuben Rogers on bass and Eric Harland on drums, now features the guitars of Marvin Sewell and Julian Lage and Lloyd seems to love the textures. Let’s hope he records with this configuration.
