I was honored to be on the program (programme, in British English) at the Hay Festival, in conversation with Sameer Rahim.

While at Hay, I attended sessions featuring Robert Macfarlane, Stephen Fry, and Antony Beevor. It was an overwhelming experience. My session with Sameer went well, I’m told, but I felt like a mouse among giants.

Here is the view from Mousecastle, outside the village of Hay-on-Wye.
