This Immortal Coil ft. Hanna Thomas Uose
This week, we're joined by the novelist Hanna Thomas Uose to talk about her debut work Who Wants To Live Forever , published by Brazen/Hatchette.
Hanna and Hussein talk about the central theme of the novel – the desire to extend one's life, and ones time being alive – and how it reflects contemporary anxieties on ageing, the melancholy of elder millennials, and the idea of being 'useful' under capitalism. Hanna also talks about how this differs from tech billionaire's obsessions with extending their own lives, what it tells us about their own desires for power and control, and what the future might look like if Silicon Valley decided to commodify both space and time itself.
