I get the attractionto Tim Parks’ life, which we haard about on this episode. I assume he’s a good writer. but iis his writing somehow emulating, or describing what J C King would be if things had turned out differently? How do we tell if either of you are talking about the book?

Meh. Interviewing the author is an achievement in itself, especially if you’re doing a podcast. But I wish I knew how he secured a life in Italy…
