Kavita Ivy Nandan on Through the Trapdoor

The author of Through the Trapdoor reads from and talks about her new short story collection. We cover such things as how the collection came together, the interconnectivity of the stories, the title and the many trapdoors in the book, some of the key themes especially migration, memory, transformation, and the epiphany. We also discuss the publication process, the book's illustrations, the short story form, and lots more. Through the Trapdoor is now available at Paperchain Bookstore: https://paperchainbookstore.com.au/book/through-the-trapdoor.do and will soon be available at Harry Hartog ANU (Canberra) and Harry Hartog Miranda (Sydney), and the National Library of Australia Bookshop.
