I’ll be in conversation with Helen Mort about her Black Car Burning (and perhaps some of her other work) and with Niviaq Korneliussen about Crimson at EIBF. Both novels share an evocation of places that impact people and stories alike. The physicality of Helen Mort’s book is quite wonderful (and is in converastion with her book of poetry, No Map Could Show Them). Both authors’ books are up for the first book prize at the festival. Come along and cast your votes.
