Sohaila Abdulali did not want to write a book about her experience of being raped. It was a long time ago and she’d very much moved on with her life. But, after some articles she’d written about it went viral, she did write a book.'What We Talk About When We Talk About Rape' is an incredible, genre-defying discussion of the troubling ways that rape and sexual violence are experienced and discussed. With no self-pity but much insight and, I have to say, an inherently joyous character, she brings sensible, open thinking to an entirely taboo topic. Obviously, this episode contains discussion of sexual violence, so if you find that difficult, probably best not to listen on.
