Few people understand the vagueries of the human heart such as My Name Is Leon author Kit de Waal, who returns to the Festival to discuss her latest novel, The Best of Everything. A book bursting with joy and tenderness about how love changes our lives, it follows meticulous organiser, Paulette, who finds her perfect life plans waylaid when she unexpectedly ends up caring for two children. In conversation with Damian Barr.
