Join Clare English for a special interview with Jon Ronson.

Writer and documentary film maker Jon Ronson joins Clare English at the Wigtown Book Festival for a special edition of The Book Cafe.

Joseph Heller's quotation from Catch 22 says it all:
" Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you ". That may well sum up the mindset of Clare English's guest this week - an author who's drawn to life's "catch 22" situations who lurks between the cracks, where boundaries are blurred and things are never quite what they seem. Cults, conspiracy theorists, outlandish personalities- these are Jon Ronson's stock in trade. Recorded at the Wigtown book festival in Dumfries and Galloway with a live audience.
