On Episode 8 of New Voices, Maria speaks with journalist and writer Cat Davey about her book 'Stupefaction' based on the obituary column (and its writers) of a New York newspaper. Cat is critiqued by Arek Sinanian - an engineer and climate change expert — who is still wiping the sweat from his brow from having written a tome on climate change. But nothing beats the challenge and angst, he says, of embarking on his first novel, a mystery thriller which is steeped in classical music, art and philosophy. What does he think of Cat’s work?
