With a desire to lift the lid on “behind-closed-doors” discussions, The Feminist Book Club (Paris) also lives on the airwaves as The Feminist Book Chat Podcast. A format that breaks down misogynistic behaviour and discusses intersectional feminism through topics such as raising feminist children, sex work, education, porn, religion, BIPOC feminism, queer culture, trans identities, motherhood, beauty shackles...the conversation is endless!

He is not just an incredible translator, he is also a great advocate for other translators in terms of knowledge sharing and visibility. His opinions are considered but unfiltered, which makes for a great discussion. He spoke to me from Incheon, Korea, about a whole range of things.
