Some debuts are so assured and so distinctive that you just have to know more about what went into their creation. Kaliane Bradley’s The Ministry of Time is one such debut. We sat down with her to discover how the book was originally meant to be something else entirely, the inspirations behind its brilliant plot, and how she managed to balance comedy and trauma in such an entertaining read.

  • This is a fantastic book. What an intelligent,clever,funny and engaging woman. Cant wait to read more of her work.
  • Kalianne destroys my image of an author as an introvert. Her persona and writing are equally exuberant.

    I wonder if at any point in this interview she mentions the Spaniard TV series from 2015-2020 that is called exactly "The Ministry of Time" too and which is pretty much exactly what she describes as the central ideas of her book...

    An excellent book I read in a single sitting. If you’re reading this: buy the book.
