Interview

Following a year of global revolution, a new 1,200-page collection—featuring writings from Angela Davis to Kathy Acker to William Hazlitt—is both an examination of, and a guide to, revolutionary thought. Here, a conversation with creators Lisa Robertson and Matthew Stadler.

In Toronto for Holocaust Education Week, the author of What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank speaks about Nora Ephron, global fiction, hoodlums, and how the past is always present.

Already a successful stockbroker, Jo Nesbø first cut his teeth singing songs and writing lyrics for Norwegian rock band Di Derre (Those Guys). A jet-lagged Nesbø talks about the origins of Harry Hole, the protagonist in so many of his dark thrillers, and how he got into writing in the first place with the only recently translated The Bat.

In Susin Nielsen's latest YA novel, The Reluctant Journal of Henry K. Larsen, a 13-year-old boy comes to grips with the aftermath of a school shooting. Nielsen talks to Hazlitt about bullying, getting her start on Degrassi Junior High, and unwittingly becoming a wrestling expert.
