The Atlantic Ocean - essays by Andrew O'Hagan
The ebullient Scottish writer Andrew O'Hagan is best known for his fiction. He has written three novels: Our Fathers, Personality and Be Near Me which have all won prizes. But he also has a reputation as a writer of non-fiction. He's a contributing editor with The London Review of Books and has been described as 'the best essayist of his generation' by The New York Times. At this year's Edinburgh International Book Festival he spoke with journalist Magnus Linklater about his latest book The Atlantic Ocean: Essays on Britain and America.
