VINTAGE BOOKS

Podcast Special: Julian Barnes and Suzanne Dean

Author Julian Barnes and Vintage Creative Director Suzanne Dean have been working together for 20 years. To mark the publication of their latest collaboration, the new novel The Noise of Time, Alex Clark spoke to them both in the Vintage Podcast studio about how a book design comes together, what makes a cover iconic and why neither will let the other retire.

He waits all through the night, expecting to be taken away to the Big House. Any celebrity he has known in the previous decade is no use to him now. And few who are taken to the Big House ever return. Hosted on Acast.
