Episode description as stored

In this episode we discuss how the acclaimed author Emily St. John Mandel discusses how the delayed television adaptation of her novel The Glass Hotel unexpectedly inspired her latest dystopian book, Exit Party. During the interview, she reflects on the political anxieties and societal themes embedded within her new speculative fiction, which imagines a fractured America following a government collapse. Mandel also shares insights into the evolving literary promotion landscape, where modern authors must constantly hustle across both traditional journalism and digital platforms. Additionally, she provides updates on her ongoing television projects, including writing scripts for adaptations of her other books and navigating the often dehumanizing realities of Hollywood casting practices.
