Love Lives: ‘It’s rare that fiction doesn’t problematise queer relationships’ - with Naoise Dolan

Bestselling author Naoise Dolan joins us this week to discuss her latest novel, 'The Happy Couple', which follows two people as they approach their wedding day, and the three friends who threaten to draw them apart. Following her hit debut novel, 'Exciting Times', the Irish author was earmarked by many as the “next Sally Rooney”. We chat with her about how she navigates labels such as these, writing queer love stories into the modern literary landscape, and her lifelong love affair with coffee. #lovelives #podcast #bookstagram #booktok #queer #author Watch full episodes of Love Lives on Independent TV: https://bit.ly/3MtSfQa Click here to subscribe to The Independent: https://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-Independent Connect with The Independent: Check out our full video catalog:    / theindependent   Click here to get the best of The Independent daily: https://www.independent.co.uk/newslet...
