BBC Radio Scotland - The Culture Café, 08/01/2013

Join Clare English for a special interview with Jon Ronson.

Clare English is at the Wigtown Book Festival and is joined by writer and documentary filmmaker Jon Ronson.

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.
