On this episode of Glass Bookshop Radio, Jason chats with the multi-talented Jordan Tannahill about his latest novel: THE LISTENERS. The two discuss the pursuit of artistic curiosity, moving between forms, cultivating community, and much more.


Jordan Tannahill is a playwright, novelist, and director. His plays have been translated into ten languages and honoured with a number of prizes including two Governor Generals Awards for Drama. His debut novel, LIMINAL, won France’s Prix des Jeunes Libraires, and his second novel, THE LISTENERS, has been shortlisted for the Giller Prize. In 2019, CBC Arts named Tannahill as one of sixty-nine LGBTQ Canadians, living or deceased, who has shaped the country's history.
