Writers talking to writers

Peter Kalu: 'Rather than waiting for someone to speak it of me [...], I’ll write it down myself as a way of getting that flesh and blood, with all flaws, description.'

In conversation with John Siddique

Ebony Reid: 'I needed to showcase those lighter moments, the difficulties of wanting to escape trap life and then documenting the reasons why they can't escape it.'

In conversation with Lemara Lindsay-Prince

Basma Ghalayini: 'Because we're continually being bombed and occupied, there's curfews, there's strikes, we can't just stop every time something like this happens or we'll never do anything.'
