Josephine Rowe Isn’t Interested In Efficiency
Manage episode 479953912 series 3489758
Josephine Rowe’s writing has been described by the New York Times as “gorgeous” and “precise”. This is particularly evident in her latest novel, Little World, a slender book that offers a deeper, denser exploration of ideas than its modest page count might suggest. This week on the show, Michael sits down with Josephine to discuss the genesis of Little World and why a library card might be her most prized possession.
Reading list:
Tarcutta Wake, Josephine Rowe, 2012
A Faithful, Loving Animal, Josephine Rowe, 2016
Here Until August, Josephine Rowe, 2019
Little World, Josephine Rowe, 2025
Ritual, Chloe Elisabeth Wilson, 2025
You can find these books and all the others we mentioned at your favourite independent book store.
