Speaking of Lost Girls-

"One of the things that we remarked upon after finishing the book was what a profoundly '60s agenda Lost Girls was actually carrying out, even though it was coming out in 2006. If you look at the elements of Lost Girls, it's got Victorian children's fantasy characters like Alice in Wonderland, who was very big during the '60s. That Lewis Carroll imagery was very popular. You've got flowers everywhere. It's dripping with art nouveau, which of course was something that was also true of the psychedelic era. Its basic message is very pro-erotic. It has a fairly relaxed attitude to drugs, which was also true of much of the '60s. Its basic message is, "Make love not war." I've remarked to Melinda that if we'd just thought of that before we started on the book we could have just bought ourselves one of those badge-making machines and saved ourselves the trouble of spending 17 years doing a 240-page, lavishly illustrated book. We've tried to explain why sex is a normal, healthy human urge. The sexual imagination is a normal part of healthy human life. Actually, going to some foreign hellhole and getting killed or killing people who are just the same as you other than an accident of geography -- that is not natural. Yes, they're things we've been doing a long time, but it doesn't mean they're natural and it doesn't mean that they're right."
