In conversation

Karen McCarthy Woolf in conversation with Gabriel Gbadamosi

‘I wrote on a boat in the middle of the Thames, an experience of being held in the water, neither north nor south. I’m always attempting a fusion of opposites, of multiplicities, trying to write music with words.’

'White linen on the bed. White curtains shrunk in the wash. White muslin squares. Your tiny white vests, unworn.'
