When I was in Montreal for the Blue Met Literary Festival, Veena Gokhale got talking to me about my writing and activism. This was one hell of an interview: we were recording it in my hotel room at 10 in the night, and then it went on till 11.30. I had not eaten anything, and was tired after two back-to-back readings in the evening. And yet, for all the fatigue, it was a great experience.
Listen to the three-part podcast on OpenSpaceIndia.
Special bits: I read Random Access Man (about the love triangle: Ram, Sita, Ravan), and Massacre of the Innocents (about the Gujarat genocide 2002).
I heard the Interview it was a blend of very calculative owrds and concerness towards happenings in society and offcourse some beutiful description of english in poetic language. Great to hear those words.Admirer with many wishes
Listened to the interview. You teach so many lessons to our girls through your words – I guess indirectly!
I didn’t mean – only girls. Its actually for everyone(I am bad in expressing myself in English). I have learnt so many from you!
