Fantastic conversation between Edna O'Brien and Her Majesty, The Queen - both very comfortable in each other's company. So interesting to hear her speak - great stuff.
What a lovely conversation between 2 interesting and brave women. I could have listened to this interview much longer. This makes me proud to be a female❤. Thank you…
Finally! An interview where the guest took the lead and the interviewer gave her guest complete ownership of the direction of the interview. Well done to both women. 👍
It's been said that this was a very real conversation between two very likeminded people. Between these two there is no No rank... Just a bringing together...of two sensitive and Intelligent ladies. The admiration for Edna is so clear from HRH. The recent death of Ms O'Brein leaves a hole in the world of Literature. BUT we have this...Thank You.
What a wonderful interview, one of the best I have seen or listened to. Two very intelligent women. Queen Camilla could teach some ‘ professionals’ how to do it. She listened, didn’t interrupt and was so gracious. Two lovely ladies 👏👏
I don’t know Edna O’Brien and I don’t know why a book she wrote was shameful to her family. I now need to research it. I looked at this video to get a feel of Queen Camilla. I’m so impressed by both of them.
Girl was only published 5 years ago. She must have been really something to go to Nigeria ALONE to research her book at the age she was then. Respect. I can’t wait to read it.
It is incredible book. Harrowing is the right word but tremendous. I adore her work. "The Little Red Chairs " is excellent also. She was my favourite living writer until her very recent death . Queen Camilla seems taken with her which is lovely I hadn't come across this chat before.
Its soothing to hear from these wonderful women ❤❤❤i think it's actually a good cause to talk about stories that relaye to many .... Lots of love from Zambia 🇿🇲
I have always been a huge fan of Queen Camilla…Maybe, Interviewers should learn from Queen Camilla. Not once did she interrupt Edna O’Brien…She just quietly and attentively listened to her. A Great interview.
This was a brilliant interview to great women, Queen Camellia, such a great listner and such an intelligent women in conversation wit another great author .
What a delightful conversation - balanced and gentle but filled with meaning. I see that the Queen has a few other videos in 'no context' so that's where I am heading next. Delightful.
Thanks for this! Had met Edna, attended readings, so well acquainted. But Camilla is a discovery - normal, not posh at all, informed, she reads (!) - very nice conversation!

A true trail blazer and true influencer of the 20th and early 21st century for women to not be afraid and speak out for themselves. R.I.P. Edna O`Brien. Slainte.
Fabulous - a truly meaningful interview. I came away feeling that the girls about who the book is based on were given the respect and voice they deserve
"If the messenger in you tells you to do it and every writer is always waiting for that messenger" - brilliantly said. Thank you Edna. As a writer myself I understand what you are saying... ♥
I thoroughly enjoyed this lovely conversation between two very intelligent people. I just love and admire queen Camilla. Thank you for this wonderful video.🎈🇺🇸🎈
R.I.P. Edna. Of all the writing I have enjoyed, yours is my favourite. Just the other day I was wondering were you still around and then I heard of your leaving us. I will keep your memory alive. My friends know just how much I admire you. I am keeping on writing too! Much love.
Respectfully, Queen Camilla comes across as empathic, considerate and a perceptive person. Thank you so very much for sharing your insights and interests.
That's quite a new quality brought in. A queen putting the spot on interesting and relevant topics through an interview on a high level. I have to say, I like what I sea ❤
Rest in peace Edna,I was present at an evening where she was interviewed ,such an elegant articulate lady,interview with Queen Camilla was relaxing and calm,very good rapport between them.
What a breath of spring, civilised, intelligent conversation. I love O'Brien and Queen Camilla is good at this, coming in at just the right moment and allowing the interviewee to take centre stage.
The Queen looks absolutely captivated and shows so much respect and admiration. Every time I watch Her Majesty I feel it is so sad that she hasn’t been in our public life for longer.
In my top 50 books I’ve read during my life, one coming in near the top is The Country Girls. I’ve read it several times since and still love it. I read Girl a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. She was one of my favourite all time authors.
I think Queen Camilla is frankly, the most wonderful person as this compelling interview proves. Long Live our Queen who is obviously a great and loving support to our King.
I once spent an evening with Edna O'Brien in 1978, she had long been my hero, I particularly adored her short stories, and I was thrilled to spend time with her. Very beautiful woman.
I know exactly what Edna was talking about when she knew she had to write her book. In 2005, I was working with Reiki and channeling. After a year of writing, I realized that I had created a book. I knew, with my entire being, that I had to self-publish a book that would be controversial. Despite my family and some friends shunning me and telling others that I was crazy, I believe my book, "Conversations with Nature," is one of the greatest achievements of my life. Sending loving thoughts to everyone.
Absolutely beautiful conversation. The thing has to be done, the writer, composer, musician, compels you to do it. To give an ending HOPE without being false but find an enduring strength! When you leave someone ir something, that you feel the full power of it. So so interesting. Perfect respectful host is Queen Camilla ❤
I’m an American. I have no investment to the monarchy; however, this is a masterfully conducted interview between interviewer and interviewee. Interviewers, far and wide, British and American, take note: no undue or incessant interrupting by the interviewer; no constant steering of the interviewer of the interviewee to satisfy an agenda; no senseless dialogue to fill space. What a (sadly) rare spectacle!
Very impressive. A real conversation and a very good listener asking intelligent and sensitive questions. Edna O’Brian is so fluent and eloquent. RIP
Apologies for misspelling Edna O’Brien’s name.
Indeed. So impressive - one of the favourite authors of my youth. RIP Dame Edna. ❤️
Oh my God 😢
Loved her books, read when I was 18, so many years ago
She’s not Queen. Never will be. Stop calling her Queen.
Two formidable women talking and listening to one another intelligently ……endlessly fascinating and enjoyable
Fantastic conversation between Edna O'Brien and Her Majesty, The Queen - both very comfortable in each other's company. So interesting to hear her speak - great stuff.
Two great women really enjoyed their talk regards from Ireland
Beautiful interview both softly spoken and well paced which was so refreshing in this fast paced world we live in.
I could listen to Ms OBrien all day. Thank you for this interview
Captivating conversation,so enjoyed.
What a lovely conversation between 2 interesting and brave women. I could have listened to this interview much longer. This makes me proud to be a female❤. Thank you…
Me too🪷🌺
She's a good listener. Doesn't impose. Lovely interview.
Finally! An interview where the guest took the lead and the interviewer gave her guest complete ownership of the direction of the interview. Well done to both women. 👍
Yes, and what a lesson for most interviewers!
Agree
Excellent interview. Evidently the Queen had read the book and been impressed by it. She asked the right questions to make us want to read it.
@@cuchiakel Exactly right 😊
Nah she would be in Australia searching for kids
Thank you for sharing this interesting interview. I particurlary like the way Queen Camila listen to her. She's an amasing interviewer.

Very enjoyable, so easy to watch and listen to thank you.
My first introduction to Mrs. O’Brian. I look forward to reading her books.
Queen Camilla is a very good interviewer. She doesn't steer the conversation and she allows the interviewee to shine.
Not .y Queen
What a delightful conversation - balanced and gentle but filled with meaning. I see that the Queen has a few other videos in 'no context' so that's where I am heading next. Delightful.

Interesting and respectful ❤
Edna has had some very profound life experiences
Very good conversation with Queen Camila and Mrs Edna O'Brien talk about your books.

I didn’t realize she was gone. Just a few days ago. 💙
@@timmi59
Me neither
May God rest her soul
Fabulous - a truly meaningful interview. I came away feeling that the girls about who the book is based on were given the respect and voice they deserve
I'm going to love watching your interviews.
Queen Camilla could teach Oprah how to stay intelligently , curiously deeply attentive but quite silent and let the guest speak. 👌
I doubt that.
@@WTillmanshe will. The idea is for the one being Interviewed to be able to answer questions without being interrupted by the interviewer.
I wish this had have gone on for longer. Thoroughly enjoyable.
I loved this interview with two special women.
Queen Camilla is such an excellent interviewer' only stumbled on this by accident
Wonderful to see the Queen and Edna O'Brien - two intelligent and unassuming women.
How I enjoyed this interview. Both women - intelligent and with a special charm.
Superb conversation between two thoughtful women. Thank you!
"If the messenger in you tells you to do it and every writer is always waiting for that messenger" - brilliantly said. Thank you Edna. As a writer myself I understand what you are saying... ♥
R.I.P. - She shone a light on practices in relation to women that were problematic from day one.
What a loss , but what a life and all those woven stories she’s left us 🙏🏻RIP Edna O’Brien may light perpetual shine upon your soul 🙏🏻
I thoroughly enjoyed this lovely conversation between two very intelligent people. I just love and admire queen Camilla. Thank you for this wonderful video.🎈🇺🇸🎈
She'd have been a greater person if she had left Charlie alone! Edna is wonderful person.
I didn't know till now how lovely and smart her majesty the Queen is!❤ The reading room in my favorite place on UA-cam now

Interesting a common theme between both women Is forgiveness
Camilla is a wonderful listener, this is a marvellous discussion without ego interfering

Camilla is in a different league to Oprah - excellent interview.
What a wonderful, fascinating interview!
Great Interview
What a breath of spring, civilised, intelligent conversation. I love O'Brien and Queen Camilla is good at this, coming in at just the right moment and allowing the interviewee to take centre stage.
Greetings✨ from Florida 🐬 Thank You ✨for Sharing this Heart 💜 Felt Conversation. Very Inspiring!
The Queen looks absolutely captivated and shows so much respect and admiration. Every time I watch Her Majesty I feel it is so sad that she hasn’t been in our public life for longer.
The Duchess of Cornwall is interviewing the author in the video.
Are u for real
Dame Edna O’Brien should have her own Masterclass! Thank you for sharing a rare and radiant gem!
From the moment I saw Queen Camilla nodding, while listening to others, I knew she was a good listener.
I must read the book. Amazing conversation.
Brilliant interview, Ireland.
In my top 50 books I’ve read during my life, one coming in near the top is The Country Girls. I’ve read it several times since and still love it. I read Girl a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. She was one of my favourite all time authors.
Lovely conversation and video. RIP Edna O'Brien. I'm still trying to write two books. Life keeps taking over
Beautiful conversation!!!
We all need to be so brave in this life. 🎉
I think Queen Camilla is frankly, the most wonderful person as this compelling interview proves. Long Live our Queen who is obviously a great and loving support to our King.
What a charming Camilla!
Realy???
That is how an interview is conducted: by LISTENING! thanks, Camilla.
I once spent an evening with Edna O'Brien in 1978, she had long been my hero, I particularly adored her short stories, and I was thrilled to spend time with her. Very beautiful woman.
you mean heroine - Edna O' Brien was a lady

Two amazing Ladies. RIP . Ms O’Brien.
The book happens in you - just love this!
Camilla is a wonderful woman and Queen.
Amazing. I met Edna at a Book Opening in Belgravia Sq.
Privileged to be There.
❤
That is a great interview, two wonderful women.
God bless Queen Camilla and may Edna rest in peace.
Very interesting! Thank you.
How utterly refreshing listening to this thoughtful and intelligent conversation. R.I.P. Edna O’Brien. You shall be missed.
Mrs. Edna is brilliant
Total respect, for you both 🙏🏻💗

Excellent and interesting
I’ve a new found respect for Camilla after seeing this. Edna O’Brien was ahead of her time.
I once saw Edna at Carrickfin airport in Donegal, she was extraordinarily exotic in that rural and rugged place.
Goodness.... How terrible and so true and tragic
💖 PRICELESS! Love this ... Beautiful "Meaningful" Engagement! Thank "YOU" 🙏
They seem to have great chemistry.

Fascinating, in many ways!! When was this filmed?
In 2021. Girl was one of the books selected by Queen Camilla (then The Duchess of Cornwall) for the second season of her Reading Room.
