Olga Ravn: A Writer at Work

With the irresistible International Booker Prize-shortlisted The Employees, Danish novelist Olga Ravn proved she can take an everyday experience – working – and reframe it as something quietly revolutionary. Now she returns with My Work, a funny and mercilessly honest novel about motherhood. Weaving together prose, poetry, journal entries, and letters, Ravn creates a compulsive examination of the emotions around motherhood – and of the love and pain it brings. In conversation with Chitra Ramaswamy.
