Sarah Perry and Nicholas Hogg The Road to Enlightenment

Once a book is published, it can take on a life of its own which may be way beyond the expectations of its author. How does it travel from concept to what it finally becomes, and what did the author imagine at the start of the journey? Sarah Perry’s debut The Essex Serpent was a massive bestseller adapted for screen. Her latest, Enlightenment, is tipped to be as successful. The award winning writer and poet Nicholas Hogg’s Tokyo is in production as a Ridley Scott directed film.
