The winner of last year’s Man Booker International Prize, David Grossman saw sales of his novel (translated by Jessica Cohen) rise dramatically.

Today, acclaimed writer and chair of the 2018 jury Lisa Appignanesi is joined by the book's translator Jennifer Croft, and fellow judge, translator and poet Michael Hofmann to discuss Tokarczuk's winning work.
