Known for his tender and spirited writing, Louis de Bernières has built a reputation as one of the UK’s finest novelists. With his memoir, Smelling of Rooks, the author of Captain Corelli’s Mandolin turns the lens on himself, offering a portrait of a writer’s life in rural Norfolk. Today, he joins us for a conversation about gathering a decade of reflections on everything from cats to politics, and the unpredictable joys of country living. Chaired by Rosie Goldsmith.
