Andrew O’Hagan – On Friendship

From the bestselling author of Mayflies and Caledonian Road, a heart-enriching celebration of what makes us great: our friends. In our lives, our friendships are rich and varied, shared with those with two legs, or four legs. They come dressed in the simplicity of childhood or the professional attire of adult life – either spanning decades, or only fleeting. In these gorgeous personal reflections, Andrew O’Hagan explores friendship through music and poetry, memory and history, illuminating the many ways and reasons that people come together, and how our lives are all the better because we do.

in conversation with Nic Jeune
