Mark and Joe chat with the Canadian poet and science fiction doyenne, Candas Jane Dorsey.
Candas is well-known in Canadian science fiction circles for her work as a novelist (Black Wine, A Paradigm of Earth) and editor-in-chief of The Books Collective, which included River, Slipstream and Tesseract Books.
The conversation begins around one of Candas's favourite childhood fantasy books, Crab Village by Julia Clark. (We all have one of those, right?). "I reread this book about every decade, and it holds up really well," she says.
What follows is a fascinating conversation about how we discover books, how children engage with literature, and the incredible effects that can have on the unfolding of a creative life.
