Love Amid the Carnage of War
Anyone who has heard Sebastian Barry read from his work knows he’s one of the best in the business. Anyone who has read Days Without End, his impossibly tender novel set in mid-19th century America, knows that it's another great work from the Costa Book of the Year-winning author and is surely in with a chance of bagging him another clutch of awards. Prepare, in other words, for an unmissable treat. Chaired by Jane Fowler.

2017 Edinburgh International Book Festival (edbookfest)

The Book Festival welcomed hundreds of authors from countries across the world to take part in over 900 events. Literary heavyweights joined popular bestsellers and talented newcomers in the Book Festival’s home, a specially-created tented village in central Edinburgh. They shared their stories with audiences, discussed the hot topics of the day and offered inspiring new perspectives on a vast range of subjects including globalisation, sport, feminism, music, Brexit, art, race, America, the environment and much, much more. You can listen to some of the talks in this free series of podcasts, recorded live, and offering a small taste of what the Edinburgh International Book Festival had to offer in August 2017.
