This year marks 100 years of Vintage imprint Jonathan Cape. To celebrate, we’ve launched Cape in Conversation, a Vintage Books Podcast miniseries which will see authors from across the generations and genres of Cape’s list discuss their work and ideas, and give you a flavour of the many kinds of book and different voices that Cape publishes. Today, series host Shahidha Bari is in conversation with two Booker Prize shortlisted authors, Ottessa Moshfegh and Rachel Kushner.
