In this episode of the Free and Direct Podcast, we’re joined by Michael Nath to discuss his forthcoming novel—and Indirect Books’ debut title—Talbot & The Fall: A Comedy (With Support). Along with Michael we welcome on friend of the show Eliza Marley (last heard in conversation about Henry James) and Indirect’s Social Media Manager Luke Alchin-Scolnick. A four-person podcast; who knew!
We cover quite a bit of ground, as could be expected. Michael tells us about his influences, including The Fall, the London Underground, Welsh mythology, and much more. We also cover broader questions in art and writing, touching touching on everything from craft issues to literary ancestors. Michael implores everyone to form their own curriculum, which is surely self-explanatory. It’s a great conversation about a great book–one that you can order right here!
