The Book Club: Susanna Moore on sex, rage, and the past

from Best of the Spectator

In this week's Book Club podcast, my guest is the writer Susanna Moore. Best known for her pitch-black erotic thriller In The Cut, recently republished to huge acclaim, Susanna has just published a superb memoir of her young womanhood in Hawaii and Los Angeles - from shopgirl at Bergdorf's to model and actor, script reader for Warren Beatty and lover to Jack Nicholson - called Miss Aluminium. She talks about writing the past, sexual violence, the rage that inspired In The Cut, the young Roman Polanski - and why clothes matter.Click here to try 12 weeks of the Spectator for £12 and get a free £20 Amazon gift voucher.The Book Club is a series of literary interviews and discussions on the latest releases in the world of publishing, from poetry through to physics.
