A. I really loved Sicily. In the future I would like to see the ruins and the desert of Mexico. I also would like to travel all around Hawaiian Islands.
Otras preguntas a las que contesta Banana Yoshimoto en su página oficial son sus colores, películas y músicos favoritos, cómo es que empezó a escribir; hay otras preguntas raras también, como una chica que pide un consejo sobre una relación con un hombre casado.
Acá van unas que me gustaron:
Q. How did you come up with this pen name, Banana?
A. Just because I love banana flowers.
Q. I heard that you have tatoos. What kind of design are the? And on what part of your body?
A. I have one of banana on my right thigh and another one of Obake-no-Q-Taro on my left shoulder.
Q. What is your favourite season? And why?
A. Summer. Because I love the sea.
Q. Is there any particular reason why there are often deaths described in your novels?
A. Death attracts me the most as a big motif for a writer to investigate for life.
Q. How did you spend your school days?
A. I didn't do much sports, just stayed up until late, writing novels. As a result I was dozing in class every day. In addition to that, booze came into my life at university. It's almost like I went to university to learn how to drink. Still I have no regrets about those days...though I wish I had studied a bit harder then.
Q. Why do you describe supernatural power such as premonitory dreams? Have you experienced such power yourself?
A. I don't have any experience myself, but there are many people around me who have that kind of power. So, I take it rather natunrally. The overall mysteries of this world are one of the themes of my work. So, I take to it rather naturally....
Q. Do you have the problem of discrimination of women in today's society in your mind when you are writing?
A. I don't in my work...though I feel some discrimination occasionally in real life. You may sense it in my books as a result.
Q. What is your favourite colour? And what's the reason?
A. Orange. Because it makes me feel energetic for some reason.
Q. Many depressive things are happening today. How do you think we should live at this time?
A. The only thing that we should have in mind is not to use our time to fear. And we should prepare some specific countermeasures to some extent. There is nobody who has no fear about the future. Thus we should do what we can do now, instead of just worrying about the future in vain. That's what I truly think. One other thing we should do is to look for some friends with similar sensitivity.
