Olga Tokarczuk and Jennifer Croft

This week we had a great conversation with Olga Tokarczuk and translator Jennifer Croft, joint winners of the Man Booker International prize 2018.

We caught up with Olga and Jennifer two days after their win, for the translated version of Olga’s book Bieguni (Flights), and discussed the whirlwind of prize-winning, composing constellation novels, suppressing your first published book, and the challenges of translating fiction…

The superb ‘Flights’; is out now on @FitzcarraldoEds – https://fitzcarraldoeditions.com/books/flights
