In this, the first part of a two-part interview, I talk to Sophie Coulombeau, novelist and academic, about her award-winning first novel, Rites, which was published in 2012 . The second part (https://soundcloud.com/littlewritten/sophie-coulombeau-little-written-part-2) will focus on her upcoming second novel Point No Point, which may well be out next year. Over the two parts, our topics of discussion range across the challenge of balancing multiple narrators, portrayals of Catholicism in fiction, inept internet trolls, the possibility that her new novel is an elaborate metaphor about Jeremy Corbyn (It isn't. She was joking.) and much more. Rites is a really intriguing (and fairly short) novel, which I read straight through from cover to cover, pausing only for as long as it took a passport control officer to verify that I was allowed into the UK. I would thoroughly recommend that everyone gives it a go. Sophie will also be a guest on the May edition of The Global Lab (https://soundcloud.com/the-global-lab), so keep an eye out for that. ___________ RITES Amazon (referral link): http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1901927520/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=1901927520&linkCode=as2&tag=mathistophele-21 TWITTER Sophie Coulombeau: www.twitter.com/SMCoulombeau Little Written: www.twitter.com/LittleWritten Thomas Oléron Evans: www.twitter.com/Mathistopheles WEBSITES Sophie Coulombeau: https://sophiecoulombeau.wordpress.com/ Little Written Podcast: www.littlewritten.co.uk
