Faraway lands - Anita Desai (India), Sharad Paul (Tibet), Shehan Karunatilaka (Sri Lanka), John Sinclair (China) and Diego Marani (Finland)

There's examples of architecture, history, philosophy, ecology and food and plenty of fiction that I'm looking forward to the most - Life after life by Kate Atkinson, The writing class by Stephanie Johnson, The Crane wife by Patrick Ness, exciting new novels that really come to life when you hear the author talk about the ideas and characters they have created.
