This has been a long time coming and I am actually a little bit confused about why it did not happen earlier, but here it is: I have the great pleasure of welcoming my favourite contemporary author, Lavie Tidhar, for an interview and chat about a lot of things in my podcast. For those of you who have been following this blog for a while you know I have reviewed a lot of Lavie’s works, most recently Central Station and A Man Lies Dreaming. Both novels are mentioned in the podcast, as well as their respective genesis. Other topics of the interview are: A most mysterious project (only hinted at), the difficulties of publishing novels with controversial plots, and how the reception of Lavie’s works differ from country to country. Just have a listen yourselves!     Photographs by Kevin Nixon. (c) Future Publishing 2013, with kind permission
