Listen "Womanhood, Memory, and Writing with Smriti Ravindra "
Episode Synopsis
How'd You Create That? is a podcast about the creative process.
__
It feels like yesterday that we were trying to set up the microphone for the first time and here we are in the season finale! For this episode, we had Smriti Ravindra, author of ‘The Woman Who Climbed Trees’ winner of 2023 TATA Literature Live awards for First Book.
The novel is a haunting, multi-generational story, shedding light on the transitional nature of women's lives. It beautifully captures the poignant sense of loss accompanying their journey from one home and family to another.
We discussed womanhood, Smriti’s research process, writing from memory, point of views of various characters, and much more.
