In this, the second in our Oryx and Crake series Pip talks with Wellington poet Bill Nelson.

Bill and I talk about the place of memory and flashback in Atwood’s Oryx and Crake. We also talk about how Snowman is possibly the worst last man and why that makes this book so compelling.

Short story writer Antonia Bale is the next guest on the Better off Read Oryx and Crake Series.
