We speak to mariekelucasrijneveld, author of longlisted book The Discomfort of Evening about the challenges and delights of​ semi auto-biographical writing, how they stayed motivated throughout the process and the differences between writing poetry and a novel. We also speak with translator Michele Hutchison about the poetic style of the novel and the pressures of translating other people's work. #TranslatedFiction #FinestFiction #TheDiscomfortofEvening #MariekeLucasRijneveld #MicheleHutchison faberbooks
