In conversation with Dr Elena McGrath (Carleton College), Niall talks about the literature of César Aira, Marcelo Cohen and Ricardo Piglia, the ways in which each author engages with the history of capitalism and the experience of dictatorship in Argentina, and his own stylistic and structural choices in writing his book.
