In this episode of Logroll I spoke to Suzy Hansen, contributing writer for New York Times Magazine, about her book, Notes on a Foreign Country. We talked about why she moved to Istanbul, how the idea for the book changed, and the things she included which might make us flinch but why it was important to include them.
