- Writer Neil Gaiman's contribution to the world of modern comics and graphic novels is immense, with magnificent achievements such as The Sandman series celebrated even in the highest cultural circles. At this special event in May 2014 he talks about his work, comic influences and passions; and is also joined by friend and collaborator, songwriter Tori Amos.
Chaired by the guest curators of the Library's Comics Unmasked exhibition, John Harris Dunning and Paul Gravett.

Their friendship makes me believe in magic.
I wish the interviewers stopped cutting into the middle of one of his stories to insert themselves into his stories. You've invited the man because you want to hear him speak. Let him bloody well speak!
Totally agree!
BanjoChick was thinking the same thing
I'm genuinely impressed by how Gaiman kept his cool with that guy to his left constantly interrupting him mid-sentence.
I can't watch this, his interruptions are ruining the whole thing.
One does not simply repeatedly interrupt Neil Gaiman mid-flow. Frustrating.
I can imagine those long conversations between Tori and Neil are absolutely fascinating!!!🎶✍️🙏💚
duh, totally! what I would give to sit down for tea or a glass of wine with the two of them
Until now, Tori and Neil's relationship has only existed in my mind. I love to see them interacting and genuinely caring about each other. I'll smile a little bigger now each time I hear them "stealing" each other's work. :)
slivertoe I love those moments! Like when I was re-reading American Gods, and came across the line: "In the lush Virginia hills..."
I would love to have Both Tori And Neil having a podcast.
I am in complete shock that a line from my favorite Tori Amos song is about Neil Gaiman and I never ever knew it.
I can’t help but wonder: what sort of person, while Neil Gaiman is talking, thinks to themselves, “Hmm, well this is good, but you know what would be better is if I interrupt him with MY thoughts...!”
And where did they find TWO of this sort of people to sit on the stage...? Remarkable.
I've met Paul he's a really lovely man. I would luv just to hear Neil and Tori chatting on the phone to each other... Their two of my most loved creators in this world...
This was so lovely to see. Tori was funny. Not seen her in this context before. A joy to watch!x
I am a simple man. I see Neil, I see Tori: I press like.
Thank you so much to The British Library, keep doing this kind of events!
so many true and inspiring words. I cant put into words how much i love tori. the two of them together are perfection!
Epic meeting of creative souls
I love the noise she made into his mic when she patted his back. "*THUMP THUMP*". XD
Best Tori interview ever.
Tori speaking at about 40:00 blew my mind.
1:14:00 I understand now why Delirium was linked to Tori. It's really obvious
Haha, the muse has spoken!
Tori is so beautiful, deep, intelligent, an inspiration 🥰
They're like a couple of wizards lol love this two weirdos
When I was in elementary school I read all the fantasy and science fiction in that library. Then junior high. Then highschool. I saved up my allowance and bought the graphic novels Elf Quest. Just because some of us read comics doesn't mean we are illiterate.
absolutely wonderful
The guy with the introduction enjoys words immensely.
I really loved this !
Comics should be revered as much and even more so than some other art forms.
Such creative spirits.
Most inspiring interview ever
This is so great 💕
fantastic!
Fantastic
Awesome stuff!
very insightful
The logical upside of not being a head in a jar on Futurama is that he could awaken from cryostasis intact.
For being really out of the safe place box: Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" ; Henry Miller "Crazy Cock" ; Tim O'Brien "The Things They Carried"; Peter McWilliams "Ain't Nobody's Business If You Do" (chocked full of all kinds of seeds for ideas); and if you like puzzles and long novels and have time to read everything (or nearly) twice Wallace's "Infinite Jest"."
Comic-books are worth taking a look at for live dialogue... we read Astérix by Uderzo in our English English class.(= !
someone asked a question and mentioned Tony Levin. Then Tori answered it and within that sentence said the word "discipline" which is so uncanny haha
Blueberry girl !!!!
I just met Tori and I fell in love. Im a gurl
She helped me get the courage to leave my abusive husband ❤️
"mm." "hmmm." "mmm."
Is Gaiman connected to the TV series Lucifer?
segura2112 not that I know, he doesn't get a say in the show at all, Lucifer isn't his character. He's more involved with projects he had control over like American Gods and Good Omens. He owns those characters
Yeah, he had a say in approving the casting of the main character. He also voiced God in Season 2.
He created the character, Lucifer Morningstar, in his Sandman series.
He was the God /Narrator in Season 3 Bonus Episode 26, Once upon a Time
@@JSees Cool!
Not getting any audio on this. Disappointing.
01:13:30 :)
He looks like he hasn't sleep in weeks.
Trent should've been there too.
