We have a rare returning guest this week as the brilliant Lauren Beukes joins us to tell us what she has been up to since her first appearance on the podcast (check out Episode 44 if you haven't heard that one before!).


She tells us all about her latest book, Bridge, which leads us to a discussion about why multiversal stories have become so big in recent years. Plus, we hear what she thought of The Shining Girls TV show, chat about the impact of AI on writers, and talk about the South African literary scene, including a very interesting figure known as Mikey the Killer...
