Caleb Azumah Nelson, a British-Ghanaian writer and photographer talked to library staff member Andrew Mohammed in January 2021 for Lewisham Voices.  The BBC National Short Story Award 2019 shortlisted his story ‘Pray’, and as it was set in Catford, it sparked our interest. We arranged the interview and a display of his photographs in the huge windows of Lewisham Library to promote ‘Open Water', his first novel published February 2021. Caleb talks to Andrew about living and writing in South East London, and about so much more - films, music, photography and even food. The full interview is on Facebook . Copies of Caleb Azumah Nelson's modern romance ‘Open Water’ are available in our libraries.
