This week, on Bookmark, Uma welcomes Tash Aw - the Man Booker nominated, Whitbread Award and Commonwealth Award winning Malaysian writer of The Harmony Silk Factory, and Map of the Invisible World, and Five Star Billionaire. The both of them speak about the current state of the Five Star Billionaire movie, about the proliferation of Southeast Asian Fiction, and about why so many of our great Malaysian authors live everywhere else but here.
