In her conversation with Alessandra Boller, Mary Morrissy discusses the elasticity of short story fiction; her recent turn to flash fiction; the differences between her ‘exploded novel’ Prosperity Drive (2016) and her upcoming short story cycle 20/20 Vision; her new speculative historical novel on Nora Barnacle, whom she describes as a prisoner of Joyce’s fiction; and she ponders whether writing means plundering other people’s lives. Mary Morrissy also reads the story ‘Girls in Trouble’ from her unpublished collection 20/20 Vision and an extract from her new novel Penelope Unbound.
