Esther Kinsky, author of River (tr. Iain Galbraith), Grove, Rombo and most recently Seeing Further (all tr. Caroline Schmidt), speaks with Gareth Evans, writer, editor and film/event producer. The discussion touches on the physicality of the writing process, telling a story without plot as the structuring principle, making the sensory presence of the world felt in language, and the personal and collective histories that words bear.
Recorded at Young Space in September 2024. Edited by Frankie Wells. Music composed by Kwes Darko.
