What does it mean to be human in an increasingly absurd world, and how do stories help us make sense of it all? Writer and speaker Imran Ahmad is bringing his wit, charm, and storytelling chops to the stage in a one-man show called Life, the Universe and Publishing. He’s doing it pro bono, in support of PEN Malaysia, which works to protect writers and freedom of expression. Joining us are Imran and Mahi Ramakrishnan, President of PEN Malaysia, to tell us more about the show, the cause, and the power of the written word.
