I Think You Should Read

31-05-2024 • 49 mins

"Your feelings will make you insane!"


Novelist Catherine Prasifka joins us to chat about Annie Ernaux’s intense work of non-fiction, A Girl’s Story, as well as the nature of memory and the horrors of being a teenage girl! Catherine is the author of NONE OF THIS IS SERIOUS, and the recently released THIS IS HOW YOU REMEMBER IT, both of which slap and are well worth a read.
