Vogue recently spoke to writer and organizer Sarah Thankam Mathews about her debut novel, 'All This Could Be Different,' in this exclusive interview.
It’s cool to not have any of us navigating single-story politics—we exist in multiplicity, and the culture is catching up.Well, I don’t believe that anyone does anything worthwhile alone, ever. So I would definitely say that I have a long list of debts to people from all over. I did an MFA at Iowa, where there was a lot of focus on making the art and making it better, and not a lot of focus on the industry and how to get published, probably to keep people from losing their minds.
Did you know from the start that you wanted to focus on the “immediate postgrad” era of Sneha’s life? Yeah, I did. What I wasn’t totally sure about was the exact structure of the ending, but I knew there was a closing scene I wanted to work towards when I was first writing the opening of the novel. I knew that the majority of the novel would take place during one year, 2013, in Milwaukee, and I pictured some kind of jump into the future where it ended up being one of the characters’ weddings five years later.
