Emma Forrest is a novelist, screenwriter and film director, and on 'Benign Narcissist', she examines the streak of narcissism that many creatives wrestle with, and how they attempt to tame it and alchemise it into art. Her interviews dive deep into both vast and nascent careers, encompassing directors, screenwriters, poets, playwrights, choreographers, painters, photographers and architects. In each episode, Emma traces her guest’s work, discussing how the impulse towards self-absorption can be repurposed for the greater good.
