Author David Mitchell talks to The Works Presents

The Works Presents with John Kelly returns with a new five-part series on RTÉ One, in which John meets key Irish figures from the arts and finds how they are experiencing the new reality we all now share... In the latest edition, John talks to author David Mitchell - watch it here.

David Mitchell is the bestselling author of books such as Cloud Atlas, Number9Dream, The Bone Clocks and most recently, Utopia Avenue. He has been twice shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and, much to his amusement, he was named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.
