Description

We're joined on the pod by Dutch writer Thomas Heerma van Voss, who is talking about his new chapbook, Thank You For Being With Us. We're also very pleased to have editor, writer and lecturer Andrew McDonnell asking the questions. They discuss the translation of Thomas' work, how lockdown has affected his writing in 2020 and how he crafted his short stories.
Thomas' residency was made possible by support from the Dutch Foundation for Literature and New Dutch Writing.
Hosted by Simon Jones and Steph McKenna.
