Author Chris Flynn grew up in Northern Ireland during the height of The Troubles but now lives on Phillip Island, next to a penguin sanctuary. His latest novel, Mammoth, is an unsurprisingly left-field offering, featuring actors Nicholas Cage and Leonardo DiCaprio, and narrated by a 13,000-year-old extinct mammoth. It's unquestionably a book the likes of which you are unlikely to have read before. He discusses his third novel and how mammoths could end up saving us.
Mammoth novel offers cautionary tales from the past
