S4 Ep10 Cecile Pin author of Wandering Souls

Journalist and debut author Cecile Pin. Author of Women's Prize long-listed WANDERING SOULS, a luminous debut about the lives of three young refugees and the echo their experience has through generations.
Cecile chats about:

• how her philosophy degrees feed into her writing
• interviewing Ocean Vuong as her first journalism gig
• how the background of her book was pieced together using her own family history transcripts from downing street meetings and videos on youtube
• the benefits of being in a writing group.
