Booker Prize-winning author DBC Pierre’s recent novel, ‘Meanwhile in Dopamine City’, defies form and the limits of literary possibility. A father grapples with a world changing every day, at mortal speed, his daughter’s request for her first smartphone and choice between joining this new world, wither, or escape altogether? In conversation with Jeet Thayil, Pierre discusses experimental fiction and the plea for heart and soul in robotic times.
