Bringing together her love for writing with her love for travel and discovering new cultures, Dipika Mukherjee's Writer's Postcards is a collection of essays spanning decades that capture her observations of the world. Part travelogue and part memoir, the book brings the personal, the political, and the global together, while also making a case for travel writing through a specifically female and Asian lens. We speak with Dipika about the process of writing the book, what drew her to travel writing, and why she's a firm believer in claiming space for unheard voices and stories.
