Waterstones Podcast: Sebastian Barry

The novels of Sebastian Barry form an intriguing web of family history and his latest, Old God's Time, follows a retired policeman who is forced to reckon with the past as an old case rears its head. We spoke with two-time Costa Book of the Year-winner Sebastian Barry about fleshing out the past, fatherhood and falling in love.

Thank you for this wonderful conversation!

Loved Old God's Time - stared at the wall for some time at the end. The blurb did not do it justice, but it was good to be surprised.

What a beautiful conversation!

I love the novels. I'm re-reading Old God's Time just to savour the metaphors. I'll re-read the others and find the ones I've missed. Sometimes an author interview bursts the bubble, but not this one.
