Ellen Hawley is a queer American writer who‘s been living in the UK for a long while. About three or four years ago, she wrote one of the best books I‘ve read in quite some time, about grief in a lesbian relationship, called Other People Manage, and it was nominated for some book prizes in the UK. Here, we chat about what she‘s writing and what she‘s been reading.
