Back to EpisodesThe Delusions: Jenni Fagan's Afterlife Tale
Description
The Delusions by Edinburgh author Jenni Fagan presents a unique take on judgment day, where the lead character Edi, a working-class single mom turned tattoo artist, processes souls in a bureaucratic afterlife. Edis power challenges biases against her background, and the novel draws parallels to Covid lockdowns and unchecked power. The story explores delusions in leaders and the need for accountability, while also offering hope through the overview effect, urging a shift towards connection over division.
