Episode 2
David Mitchell is the bestselling author of books such as Cloud Atlas, Number9Dream, The Bone Clocks and, most recently, Utopia Avenue. He has been twice shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize – and much to his amusement – he was named by TIME Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. He grew up in England, lived for eight years in Hiroshima, working as a teacher, before eventually settling, with his wife and two children, in Clonakilty in West Cork – his home for the past 17 years.
