Habitat - Catriona Shine talks to RTÉ Arena about her debut novel

One of the most hotly anticipated debut novels of the year, Catriona Shine's Habitat takes place in an Oslo apartment block that, over the course of an increasingly bizarre week, begins to disintegrate around a group of neighbours who can’t quite comprehend what they are experiencing.

Catriona joined Sean Rocks on RTÉ Arena to tell him all about the novel, which revolves around a number of characters, one of whom is an Irish illustrator, Sonja, who discovers that her apartment walls have begun what she describes as 'a deep yogic breathing’.

Habitat is published by the Lilliput Press. Listen to more from RTÉ Arena here.
