Pasha Malla's terrific book of short stories, The Withdrawal Method -- a debut that got a lot of positive attention here in Canada, including a nomination for the Giller Prize, which is very fancy --is now available in the United States. To mark this occasion, we decided to have a little conversation about children in fiction. I was particularly interested in Pasha's fictional kids but Pasha, in typical Pasha fashion, was more interested in other people's. You can read the conversation over at Maud's, who was kind enough to post it for us. (By the way, it's Maud's birthday today! Send her some good wishes... I'd have the baby today, if I could be assured she wouldn't be undercooked, just so she'd share Maud's astrological profile.)
I loved it. Thanks so much.
