Aleksandar Prokopiev and the Art of Hunger

Macedonian writer Aleksandar Prokopiev spoke with translator Nathan Jeffers about his new book 'Homonculus', out now at Istros Books.

This conversation was held over Skype, so any sounds in the background are the authentic murmurings of Skopje in the early evening.
