This month's show is about East and Southeast Asian identity in Britain. We spoke to journalist Helena Lee about East Side Voices, the anthology  of writing she edited that celebrates the diversity of these voices in the UK. We also spoke to poet and writer Will Harris about the poem he contributed and some of the other pieces from the collection, which features writers including Mary Jean Chan, Sharlene Teo, Rowan Hisayo Buchanan and Catherine Cho. These essays and poems cover a range of experiences and settings, from the set of Harry Potter to the NHS frontlines, and seek to combat the absence of representation in British culture in which East and Southeast Asian lives are often, to use Salman Rushdie’s words, "visible but unseen". Listen in for readings, music, plus all the usual recommendations. Recommendations: Octavia: Pisti, 80 rue de Belleville by Estelle HoyHelena: Woman, Eating by Claire KohdaWill: Ultimatum Orangutan by Khairani BarokkaCarrie: Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman Find a list of all recommended books at: https://uk.bookshop.org/lists/feb-2022-east-side-voices-with-helena-lee-and-will-harris Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/litfrictionEmail us: litfriction@gmail.comTweet us &amp; find us on Instagram: @litfriction This episode is sponsored by Picador: https://www.panmacmillan.com/picador

East Side Voices with Helena Lee and Will Harris

What does a decade long career at one of the world’s most glamorous fashion titles look like? That’s what we’re going to find out today.  Today’s guest is the incredible Helena Lee, the acting deputy editor of Harper's Bazaar and founder of East Side Voices, a platform she launched out of frustration with the lack of visibility that East Asians and Southeast Asians have. Her debut book will also be published in 2022. In today’s conversation, we talk about sisterhood, her decade long career at BAZAAR, and what the career of a writer looks like.  Helena also stars in AllBright’s The Sisterhood Works Project campaign, which is on a global mission to connect 100,000 women through our digital platform, so we can unite you all, wherever you are, and whatever your passion is.  You can find out more about The Sisterhood Works Project here. We'll be running an unmissable line-up of free networking events, industry-specific networking opportunities, inspiring interviews, IRL meet-ups and much more. ⁠ Let’s meet the incredible Helena.  Follow @hels_lee | @eastsidevoicesSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
