In our second episode of the series we head to the Edinburgh International Book Festival where we hear from the 2018 Man Booker International winner Jennifer Croft and fellow translator Antonia Lloyd-Jones. Joe then catches up with debut novelist and Man Booker 2018 longlisted Sophie Mackintosh about her appearance at the Festival and her dystopian book The Water Cure, before interviewing Man Booker 2018 prize longlistee, Pulitzer Prize and four-time National Book Critics Circle Award finalist Richard Powers.
