JASPER JONES, BOOKS TO MOVIES: A Q&A WITH CRAIG SILVEY

I’ve been a huge Craig Silvey fan ever since I was introduced, during the 2005 Writer’s festival, to Warren, via ‘Rhubarb’. Must see this film, too!

I was fortunate to be offered the opportunity to interview Craig Silvey this week. We met at Little Lefroy’s in Fremantle, a place I know well, for an informal chat covering the Jasper Jones movie adaptation to writing processes. Craig is a fantastic guy – warm and generous, despite being tired from weeks of film-related commitments – and I really appreciate him giving me this time. Jasper Jones is one of my all-time favourite books, so I admit it was a bit of a fangirl moment, but Craig had no idea … until I asked him to sign my book. 

I was also fortunate to attend an advance screening before the interview and in a word, it’s BRILLIANT. This adaptation had all the feels, all the chills, all the lingering thoughts that accompanied the book.  

Monique: Tell me, Craig, how do you feel about your journey with Jasper Jones
