Synopsis

In his internationally praised debut novel, Your Heart is a Muscle the Size of a Fist, American-Sri Lankan writer Sunil Yapa reimagines the infamous 1999 World Trade Organisation protests in Seattle, which erupted in chaos and violence as over 50,000 people took to the streets. The story takes place over one afternoon, following the fates of seven characters. Yapa discusses his electrifying novel with moderator Fred Attewill.
