I've always been very interested in political violence. When I finished high school, I did a small dissertation about political violence and fascism in Italy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Politics for me started in violence.
We were raised with that discussion about violence and non-violence, and we all pretty much came up on the side of non-violence. That became my foundation with politics and my livelihood.
I studied political science at the Ecole de Sciences Politiques in Paris.
Of course, I write crime stories, and I have to describe violence and the aftermath of violence.
I was a political journalist; I came to writing novels through an interest in politics and power.
I get very tired of violence in crime fiction. Maybe it is what life is like, but I don't want to do it in my books.
I understand working-class culture, tribalism and the ethos of violence, so I make films about these things.
I was a political science student.
I've always been interested in violence, even as a teenager. I loved 'Helter Skelter' and books like that.
I was a political science major. I was always interested in social impact.
