An interview series in which we beat the lockdown blues reaching out to friends for a nice and informal telephone chat. In our eleventh episode, Fernando Sdrigotti talks to Irenosen Okojie, who is in London.

Some of the topics discussed: her new collection, Nudibranch,writing short stories versus writing novels, writing in short bursts, writing in-between places, the pointless label of magical realism (among others), the demand to speak for a group, et cetera
