The Shakespeare and Company Book of Interviews

Shakespeare and Company, Paris, is one of the world''s most iconic and beautiful bookshops. Located on the banks of the Seine, opposite Notre-Dame, it''s long been a meeting place for anglophone writers and readers. In that tradition, determined for the bookshop to remain a place of meaningful and transformative conversation, owner Sylvia Whitman and novelist and literary director Adam Biles have hosted several hundred interviews with writers, ranging from prize-winning novelists to visionary non-fiction authors. The Shakespeare and Company Book of Interviews is a selection of the best of these interviews from the last decade. Packed with warmth, sensitivity and humour, it''s a celebration of the greatest writers of our age and an insight into the lives and thoughts behind some of today''s most talked-about books.
