Show Notes
In this week's show, I talk to the novelist Elif Shafak about the importance of the structure of literary novels, the sublime oddity of the mind, how politics deepen literature (so long as politics don't drive literature), how research itself generates creativity, and how inclusive literature is the richest literature.
