In this bonus episode of the Read it Forward podcast, Abbe and Emma ask Amy Brinker, host of the former podcast, Beaks and Geeks, and new co-host of the Read it Forward podcast, to sit down with Ottessa Moshfegh, author of My Year of Rest and Relaxation.
Having recently published her second novel (her first novel was Eileen; she has also published a novella, McGlue, and a short story collection, Homesick for Another World), the two talk about Ottessa being in conversation with Lena Dunham, the inspiration behind the book, what she chooses to read in front of an audience, and the absurd questions she gets from fans.
