  • Summary

  • The Graham Norton Book Club is back.

    We’re still all about the stories – reading them, writing then, listening to them, talking about them - and in our new series we’re featuring some of the world’s best storytellers including Margaret Atwood, Matt Haig, Walter Mosley, Lisa Taddeo and Val McDermid.

    We’ll also hear from the famous voices behind some of the best audio books around (try Dave Grohl, Miriam Margolyes, Derren Brown and David Sedaris for starters) while, of course, each time our brilliant band of clubbers hotly debate the merits of our book of the week. All this plus news, reviews and recommendations on what to read or listen to next.

    Come and join the Club. You’re very welcome.

  • Ep 2: Margaret Atwood and Derren Brown

    The Book Club entertains literary royalty as Margaret Atwood tells Graham about her Booker-nominated story of murder and madness, Alias Grace, and the clubbers pass judgement on whether it stands up in court. Master illusionist, Derren Brown, reveals some of his ‘secrets’ and, inspired by Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, Alex Clark guides us through three books who have staged impressive come-backs. All this plus which chart-toppers to watch.

So great

Graham Norton is such a talented interviewer. I’d tune in even if he were talking to a brick wall.

More Sedaris less grammatically challenged Michelle Zauner

Love nearly everything David Sedaris, and love Graham Norton. Cannot take any author seriously who persists in saying “between my mother and I.” Had to fast forward, heard snippets of the dialogue, and it was as excruciating as she was.
