Summary

Author Brandon Taylor interviews fellow novelist and travel writer Maggie Shipstead about her epic novel Great Circle, a world-spanning tale of women “navigating the ice floes of patriarchy.” From evolving ways of defining (or not defining) gender through the past two centuries, to Hollywood gossip and the perennial challenge of writing reprehensible characters, the conversation spans the dark and light of Shipstead’s multifaceted 600-page novel (including fan demands for the extended director’s cut!)
