Anjum Hasan’s latest book, ‘History’s Angel’, focuses on a historian named Alif, who navigates life in the multistoried and historical city of Delhi during a time when the study of history is becoming an increasingly conflicted territory. In this episode of the Jaipur Bytes podcast, Hasan joins writer and Itihāsology's founder, Eric Chopra, to discuss the nuances of her latest novel, the inspirations behind her previous works, her anxieties around the erasure of the past, and the ways in which she continues to reinvent herself as a writer.
