Last week, A. Igoni Barrett, Idra Novey, and Mark Doten discussed their debut novels as part of a panel discussion held at The Strand and moderated by Vol.1 Brooklyn managing editor Tobias Carroll. The conversation ranged from their use of language to the different ways in which each encompassed an international perspective in their work. You can watch the whole thing here, or below.
