Markus Zusak at the Edinburgh International Book Festival

Thirteen years since his multi-million bestseller The Book Thief,
Markus Zusak joins us for his first Book Festival appearance with
his much-anticipated follow-up, Bridge of Clay. In this
conversation with author and presenter Janet Ellis recorded live
at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival, Zusak
discusses his ambitious portrait of a family, introducing us to
the Dunbar brothers, who are living and fighting in a house with
no parents, and no rules. To find peace and beauty, one brother,
Clay, sets out to build a bridge, unaware of the secrets he will
uncover.
