Interview with Indian Writer Chandrahas Choudhury

»That’s why we read fiction, to forget who we are.« Chandrahas Choudhury

On one of the last days of October 2016, Elisabeth and Rasha invited Chandrahas Choudhury to the studio where they made »Radio Solitude« for an interview.

Chandrahas started with a reading from his first novel Arzee the Dwarf, then they continued with questions covering literature, writing, life, traveling, and the time he spent in the Schloss.

»I don’t feel the need so much anymore to think a lot about my writing: although I am a writer first of all, it feels more interesting to think about living and what to do with people.«Chandrahas Choudhury

A small recorder in a small room transmitted the natural and beautiful atmosphere of three friends conversation from inside Solitude to the world.
