- ACTUALIDAD LITERATURA: Inoveli yakho entsha inesihloko ukuthula kwaseberlin. Usixelela ntoni ngayo kwaye yavela phi le mbono?
AFRICA VAZQUEZ BELTRÁN: Ndibalisa ibali eliyintsomi lika umfundisi owathi, ekuncotsheni kobuNazi, wala ukuba yinxalenye yolawulo. Ndifikelwe ngumbono ndifunda iHistory, bendizibuza indlela amele ukuba avakalelwa ngayo amaJamani angengowobuNazi ngexesha likaHitler. Le noveli yayilungiselelwe ukuba ibe yimpendulo, kodwa ekugqibeleni yandiphakamisa ngakumbi nangakumbi imibuzo.
- KWI: Ungabuyela kulaa ncwadi yokuqala uyifundileyo? Kwaye ibali lokuqala olibhalileyo?
BVA: Andikhumbuli incwadi yokuqala endayifundayo, kodwa ndikhumbula amabali okuqala endaweva: abazali bam bandixelela ngaphambi kokuba ndilale ndisemncinci. Emva koko ndaqalisa ukuzulazula kwithala leencwadi likadade wethu omdala ndaza ndadibana Enid Blyton, UMichael Ende, UMaría Gripe… Umzamo wam wokuqala wokufumana inoveli kuxa ndandineminyaka elishumi ubudala kwaye yayimalunga nomfazi waseSpain owabalekela eRashiya emva kweMfazwe Yamakhaya waza waba ngumdanisi we-ballet.

BVA: Akukho, inyaniso kukuba ndonele yonke imihlaba. Ngenxa yeemeko zobuqu, ndize kubhala ngaphezulu kwesiqingatha senoveli ngeselfowuni yam, kwiqela likaWhatsApp endandikulo ndedwa.

- AL: Ngaba zikhona ezinye iintlobo ozithandayo?
BVA: Ndiyafunda kwaye ndibhale (okanye ndiceba ukubhala) phantse zonke iindidi, kodwa ndicinga ukuba izinto endizithandayo ziyinoveli zembali, inoveli kumnandi kunye nenoveli ulutsha yangoku.
- Ufunda ntoni ngoku? Ukubhala?
BVA: Ndigqibile ukufunda Isela, nguMegan Whalen Turner, kwaye ndibhala incwadi yesithathu kwitrilogy enesihloko umzi ongenagama. Yonke ingcamango!

Ekuqaleni andizange ndicinge ukuba ndingazinikela ekubhaleni ngokomsebenzi, kodwa ndabhala amabali amaninzi, kwaye ahluke kakhulu kwelinye, kangangokuba ndazixelela ukuba akukho nto ndilahlekelwa yiyo ngokuzama.
- AL: Ngaba umzuzu wobunzima esijamelana nawo unzima kuwe okanye uya kuba nakho ukugcina into elungileyo kumabali exesha elizayo?
BVA: Umsebenzi undincedile ukusukela ekuqaleni kobhubhane: amabali ebesoloko eyindawo yokusabela kum, kwaye ndiyathemba ukuba baya kuqhubeka benjalo kwixesha elizayo.
