Join the BBC’s arts editor Will Gompertz as he talks to John Lancaster about his sensational new novel Capital which is tipped to become one of the most sought-after books of the year, regarded by his publisher Faber & Faber as ‘the major book of 2012’. A post-crash-state-of-the-nation novel, Capital will appeal to the widest of audiences.
Originally from Hamburg, Lancaster has previously worked as a football reporter, restaurant critic and is currently a contributing editor at London Review of Books.
