Eley Williams: Fiction – The Long and Short of It
Sponsored by

Uncertainties and misunderstandings abound in Eley Williams’s Moderate to Poor, Occasionally Good. Playfully original, each story centres around off-beat characters – people like canned laughter editors and courtroom sketch artists. Talking today to Benjamin Bateman (fiction judge of the James Tait Black Prize – a prize Williams won back in 2017 for Attrib. and Other Stories), hear the author chat about her enduring love for the short story form.
