Robert Harris - The Second Sleep

Robert Harris joins Richard and Judy to discuss his latest novel,
The Second Sleep. It’s 1,468 years after the catastrophic
collapse of our current civilization, and humankind has had to
start again from ground zero.


Robert explores why he feels the Church would almost certainly
survive an apocalypse, shares his thoughts on the fragility of
modern digital society and reveals how his experience writing
historical novels has informed this story.
