  3. Gaea Schoeters on her novel 'Trofee'

    Gaea Schoeters on her novel 'Trofee'

    Today we are talking with Gaea Schoeters about her novel, Trofee. Gaea is one of the prominent voices of Flemish literature; she is a versatile creator who writes novels, screenplays, and operas. One of her first published works was Girls, Muslims and Motorcycles, in which she shared the story of her seven-month journey through Iran and Central Asia. Her novel Trofee (Trophy) has become a huge success across Europe. It won the Sabam Prize for Literature and received a special mention for the European Union Prize for Literature. The story is currently being translated into thirteen different languages, including Telugu. Trofee is a provocative novel that follows Hunter White, a wealthy American hunter who travels to Africa to complete his 'Big Five' collection by killing a rhino. The story takes a dark, unsettling turn when he is offered an even more 'exclusive' hunt, forcing him to decide if he is willing to cross the ultimate moral line. Through this high-tension plot, Schoeters explores the chilling intersection of white supremacy, global capitalism, and the commodification of human life. The book has gained international acclaim for its 'muscular' prose and its fearless critique of the 'Western gaze' and the lasting effects of colonialism. Gaea spoke on the occasion of the book's release in Telugu by Chaaya Books. * For your Valuable feedback on this Episode - Please click the link below. https://tinyurl.com/4zbdhrwr Harshaneeyam on Spotify App –https://harshaneeyam.captivate.fm/onspot Harshaneeyam on Apple App – https://harshaneeyam.captivate.fm/onapple *Contact us - harshaneeyam@gmail.com ***Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed by Interviewees in interviews conducted by Harshaneeyam Podcast are those of the Interviewees and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of Harshaneeyam Podcast.
