EL James: Fifty Shades of Grey

I talk to author of the moment EL James about the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy, which has taken America by storm and is now sweeping the UK.

She tells me about the 50 Shades phenomenon and why the book has created such a buzz! (NOTE: This interview does discuss topics of a sexual nature)

She enjoyed the interview so much she came back a couple of months later so we could catch up again! Watch the interview in full on the Magic website.

About the book

When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realise she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana’s quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.

Shocked yet thrilled by Grey’s singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success—his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family—Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey’s secrets and explores her own dark desires.translate farsi into english
