Rue 89: Throughout this saga, you have a very strange view of time—should one see in this a relationship to David Lynch’s artistic work, which is also very irrational? You’ve been a screenwriter for his movies.
Gifford: David Lynch’s work is David’s. Mine is mine.
Any relationship or influence between one and the other?
I see our collaborations as compatible inspirations.
Has the cinema changed your literary work?
No. My writing has changed the cinema. —Translated from the interview at Rue 89
