This week on the penguin podcast, Nihal Arthanayake is joined by former journalist and best-selling novelist, Robert Harris.
Robert joins the Penguin Podcast to discuss his latest work of epic historical fiction, Act of Oblivion, out now in hardback.
He also discusses his observations on the static nature of human nature, how journalism informs his ability to write fiction, the potential of a simple idea to inform an entire novel, the irrationality of politics, and the UK’s shifting perspectives on the monarchy.
