The latest episode of Unsound Methods is now up and this week we speak to Olga Tokarczuk and Jennifer Croft, joint winners of the Man Booker International prize 2018.

Olga and Jennifer received the prize for the translated version of Olga’s book Bieguni (Flights) and we caught up with them two days after their win to discuss the whirlwind of literary prize-winning, composing constellation novels, suppressing your first published book, and the challenges of translating fiction.

The superb ‘Flights’; is out now on @FitzcarraldoEdshttps://fitzcarraldoeditions.com/books/flights — and you can find Jennifer on twitter: @jenniferlcroft
