Media headlines, social media posts, snatches of conversations - they're all part of the mix in the latest novel by writer Catherine Chidgey.

The Beat of the Pendulum she describes as a "Found Novel."

She tells Lynn Freeman that It's involved a year of gathering all the material she could, then honing it right down and structuring it in a way that tells a story.
