Jessica H asked Linda Lafferty:

Hello! Sorry to bother. I hope this sees you well. I am a doctorate student researching historical fiction on the Ottoman Empire, and I am interested in accessing a little bit more info about you and about how you came to write about the Ottoman Empire, why, etc.- of course if that's okay with you? Best, Djay xx

Geoffrey Adams asked Linda Lafferty:

Ms Lafferty I now know, thanks to you, why the Satanic Verses earned Salman Rushdie the fatwa - he dared to speak about patriarchy in Islam. One mustn't ever challenge the impotence, sorry, importance of the penis in history. Esma Sultan, your creation, is one of the great Wise Women of fiction. More, more, more please! ? (oh, have to have a question mark? Can't just say an admiring 'thank you'?
