About this listen
British-Hungarian author David Szalay joins Eve Jackson on arts24 to discuss his controversial Booker Prize-winning novel "Flesh", which follows István – a silent, violent and unsettling protagonist – from a bleak Hungarian housing estate to London's super-rich elite. Szalay reveals why he called his book "risky," how he made readers care about someone who says "OK" 400 times and what happens when Stormzy and Dua Lipa champion your work.
Exploring themes of masculinity in crisis, wealth's corrupting power and uncomfortable questions about what makes a life worth living, this interview is essential viewing for anyone who wants to understand one of literature's most daring winners.
