Description

Philip Roth is the voice of our times. In a sequence of intimate conversations with some of the most influential and insightful writers of the twentieth century, Roth explores the importance of region, politics and history in their work and that of their predecessors. What qualities helped Primo Levi survive the demented laboratory of Auschwitz?

What does Milan Kundera make of being denounced as a subversive writer in communist Czechoslovakia?

What does Edna O'Brien think drove generations of Irish writers into exile?Between colleagues and friends there is a startling candour seldom found in formal interviews, a sense that the guard is dropped, the ideas unbounded, as the conversations crackle with an urgency of ideas.

Shop Talk is a literary symposium of the highest calibre, profoundly revelatory and consistently enlightening.
