DBC Pierre - You're Booked
We are back at the Jaipur Literature Festival at Soneva Fushi in the Maldives for this freewheeling conversation with the legend that is DBC Pierre! Pierre's debut novel Vernon God Little was the winner of the Man Booker Prize for Fiction and the Whitbread First Novel Award. He followed this with a series of acclaimed works in fiction and non-fiction including Ludmila's Broken English, Breakfast with the Borgias, Release the Bats and his latest Big Snake, Little Snake which is a meditation on fate, risk and luck. We talked to him about illicit reading in the barber's chair, writing tips and routines, hopeful books, debauchery, decadence and the necessary joy of plodding.
