Booker Prize long-listed English author Susanna Clarke is one of the most influential fantasy writers of our time.
Twenty-one years after the publication of her smash-hit debut fantasy novel Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, bestselling author Susanna Clarke is returning to this world with several short stories.
There has only been one other large piece of writing in two decades. Her novel Piranesi won the Women's Prize For Fiction in 2021. In between, a bit like the magic she writes of, she vanished.
After writing Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell in 2004 Susanna was diagnosed with ME, finding herself unable to write or even think of herself as a writer anymore. Susanne speaks with Susie.
