Catch Yuliana Ortiz Ruano in discussion with Daniel Hahn at this year’s Edinburgh International Book Festival:

In Yuliana Ortiz Ruano’s Carnaval Fever, a girl’s coming of age in the Afro-Ecuadorian community of Esmeraldas pulses with music, dance, and the fierce love of the women who raise her. But beneath the celebration, shadows press in: poverty, migration, and the threat of male violence. Daniel Hahn joins one of Latin America’s most exciting voices, an English PEN Translates Award-winner, to discuss identity, resilience, and writing that you feel in your body.
