The Bookshelf with Jennifer Morrison - Ep. 13: “Disorientation” with Elaine Hsieh Chou
The Bookshelf with Jennifer Morrison - A podcast by Apartment 3C
Categories:
On this episode, Jennifer discusses DISORIENTATION, a novel written by Elaine Hsieh Chou, a finalist for the 2023 New York Public Library's Young Lions Fiction Award. DISORIENTATION follows the story of Ingrid Chou who, while procrastinating writing her thesis, stumbles upon a peculiar note that changes the course of her research and life. Jennifer and Elaine discuss how she was able to tackle important yet heavy subjects while keeping the audience constantly engaged with never-ending laughs, twists and turns. Can we ever break free from the story structure of beginning-middle-end? Or are all our lives just the shape of a curve whether you're surviving a war, writing an award-winning novel, or just a snail in a diorama?
