Interview with A.N. Donaldson
This episode Mike and Will speak to the author A.N. Donaldson, whose debut novel ‘Prospero’s Mirror‘ features M.R. James as the main protagonist!
In the novel M.R. James is summoned to Old College, Oxford to examine the inscription on an ancient mirror which may have belonged to the magician John Dee. Soon James finds himself sucked into a tangled web of science, sorcery and the supernatural which stretches back to 1665 when the Black Death came to Oxford…
“They live in two places, I suppose: in fever dreams and mirrors… What is it? This unutterable thing. An abomination!”
The episode features readings by Alisdair himself.
The book can be purchased in paperback and ebook formats on Amazon.co.uk
