Publisher's Summary
From the best-selling author of Last Orders and Mothering Sunday, a brilliant collection of essays, as well as brand-new material, that will delight and intrigue listeners.
In Making an Elephant, Graham Swift brings together a richly varied selection of essays, portraits, poetry and reflections on his life in writing. Full of insights into his passions and motivations, and wise about the friends, family and other writers who have mattered to him over the years, this is a revealing and intimate collection. Kazuo Ishiguro advises on how to choose a guitar, Salman Rushdie arrives for Christmas under guard and Ted Hughes shares the secrets of a Devon river. There are private moments, too, with long-dead writers, as well as musings on history and memory that listeners of Swift’s novels will recognise and love.
