Sebastian Faulks and Richard Powers (Why are we such a weird species?)

Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Powers goes head to head with bestselling novelist Sebastian Faulks, in a war of the words. These two great writers discuss their work and inspirations, why humans are so fragile, writing in the wilderness, the future of the planet, and give us a few book recommendations along the way too. In the Book Off, they pitch Marcel Proust's "In Search Of Lost Time" against "Say Nothing" by Patrick Radden Keefe - but which one will win?
