David Nicholls: British author and screenwriter talks about pressures of success ahead of Writers Festival appearance

from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB

David Nicholls is a critically acclaimed author and BAFTA-winning screenwriter - and he's set to make an appearance at this year's upcoming Auckland Writers Festival. His bestselling book One Day sold millions of copies and went on to become a successful hit series on Netflix. Off the back of his latest hit novel, You Are Here, Nicholls plans to address Kiwi fans - and open up about the pressures of success. "I've written a lot of books set in the past and a lot of books with quite a large time scale - and this is like a little delicate chamber piece, even though it takes place against all these mountains and lakes and rivers. It's a character study."  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
