Join author Priya Basil and Granta contributor Madeleine Thien to explore how we tell stories after a crisis with Granta editor John Freeman. Priya Basil is the founder of Authors for Peace. In her most recent novel The Obscure Logic of the Heart (Black Swan, 2011), she moves through Europe and Africa to explore themes of pacifism, the nature of faith and the motives of men in the illegal arms trade. Madeleine Thien’s recent novel Dogs at the Perimeter, which was extracted in Granta 114, opens a window between East and West, and looks into the disappearance of loved ones, the fall of Phnom Penh and the Khmer Rouge. The conversation is part of a series of events that mark the launch of Granta 116: Ten Years Later, which look at where we are now, ten years on from 9/11.
