Audrey Niffenegger on the sequel to her hugely successful novel The Time Traveller's Wife

Best-selling author of The Time Traveller’s Wife, Audrey Niffenegger talks about her much-anticipated sequel Life Out of Order, which returns to the story of the time travelling father and daughter.

Playing FBI agent Dale Cooper in the 1990s tv series Twin Peaks made a cult star of actor Kyle MacLachlan. He discusses his memoir Fictional Selves, which reflects on this, and his other roles for auteur David Lynch.

Bram Stoker’s 1897 Gothic classic Dracula may have shaped visions of vampires for generations, but the blood-sucking creature of the night has fascinated writers long before he first left Transylvania. Nick Groom joins to talk about his new collection Vampire Tales, which features some of the earliest known stories about vampires, while author and vampire fan Suzi Feay reads her new poem Vampire from her latest book of poetry Maledictions.

And Gilles Mentré, co-founder of the Prix Pascal of AI Literature, explains his hopes for this new award.
