Welcome back to Midnight in Karachi, a bi-weekly podcast about writers, publishers, editors, illustrators, their books and the worlds they create, hosted by Mahvesh Murad.
This week’s podcast features Monica Byrne, whose debut novel The Girl in the Road has been featured on a number of Best of 2014 lists and has just been nominated for The Kitschies Golden Tentacle award. Mahvesh talks to Monica about diversity in fiction, the blurred genre that is both SF and ‘literary’ fiction, writing from privilege, and travelling the world.
