The Creative Genius of Jasper Fforde

    International bestselling author Jasper Fforde joins us from his barn turned studio in Wales to discuss his latest novel, “The Constant Rabbit.” Just as with his Thursday Next, The Dragonslayer and Nursery Crimes series, it does not disappoint in terms of creativity, humorous writing and thought provoking real world scenarios (in utterly fantastical worlds). The conversation is entertaining with Fforde discussing the inspiration for this and other books, how some of his characters’ names poke fun at himself, the play on words in his latest title, how the Thursday Next series started (it was originally meant to be a stand alone book) and Fforde’s love of photography (featured on his Instagram page along with #catapostrophe).

    Signed copies of the book are available from Left Bank Books: https://www.left-bank.com/book/9780593296523. Curbside pickup and shipping available.
