On this episode, we bring you another author interview with Winnie M Li, the author of ***Dark Chapter ***, a novel based loosely on the author's real life rape in Ireland. We talk to Winnie about her what it's like writing a story so close to her real life traumas and her decision to imagine the events from the perspective of her attacker.

Don't miss Chinese Republicans, a new play from Alex Lin
Coming to the Roundabout Theatre Company this winter, Chinese Republicans is a biting new satirical drama from Alex Lin, directed by Chay Yew, following three high-powered businesswomen who meet for lunch every month to discuss their latest career triumphs, as they’ve done for decades. But the group is jolted when Katie, a bright-eyed 24-year-old new to the workforce, joins to navigate the world of corporate finance. As each of the women attempts to steer Katie towards what they’re certain is best, they’re forced to grapple with how much they already have and are willing to sacrifice to climb the corporate ladder.
