The Economist Podcasts

Anne McElvoy asks the Japanese-American writer whether war criminals can be brought to justice. The author of โ€œIntimaciesโ€ reveals why she drew inspiration from the international criminal courts as well as the interpreters who work in them, the power of language and the pitfalls of mistranslation. The daughter of immigrants to the US talks about where she feels most at home and the secret to marital bliss.
