Here, Rjurik Davidson, associate editor at Overland and author of The Library of Forgotten Books, chats with Overland intern Clare Strahan about writing politically engaged fiction, free will and determinism, complicating fiction, the radical ’60s, sexism and the New Wave, inner space and outer space … and his latest Overland essay, ‘Imagining New Worlds’. Part I Part II The Library of Forgotten Books is published by PS Publishing.
