Author interview: Mandira Pattnaik – preview

The Indian author Mandira Pattnaik’s novella-in-flash Where We Set Our Easel is published on 23rd May.

I talked to her about her book and her writing life.

As a taster here’s what she has to say about time:

Time is eternal and at the same time slippery — this is part of our ancient Indian texts and philosophy.

Come back on Friday, 19th May, and read our full conversation, including how that notion of time informed Mandira’s approach to writing a novella-in-flash, and how the picture below comes into her book.
