One of the most successful French writers of his generation (winning the Prix Goncourt du Premier Roman for his debut, HHhH), Laurent Binet is also an academic, and a musician. His latest work, Perspectives, is a bold, thrilling whodunit that’s also an experiment in counter-factual history. Today the ever-intriguing experimentalist is joined by Chris Power for a wide-ranging conversation on the ambition in his work to date and what’s next.
