Croatian novelists Luka Bekavac and Igor Štiks discuss their latest novels, August After Midnight and W, published in English by Irish Pages Press, with Jacob Agee, Managing Editor at Irish Pages. Bekavac explains the complex, experimental form of August After Midnight, and why transcommunication and the region of Slavonia in northeast Croatia play a central role in his work. Štiks talks about the detailed account of recent revolutionary history in W, the division in left-wing politics that runs through it, and how he fed that material into a dramatic mystery thriller.
