Lee Child: Author on his short story collection 'Safe Enough: And Other Stories’
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Un pódcast de Newstalk ZB - Miercoles
He may have stepped back from his iconic series, but that doesn’t mean Lee Child has put his pen down. Since his announcement last year that he was passing the character of Jack Reacher over into his brother’s hands, he’s been credited in the latest novel ‘In Too Deep’, which is being released in October. But before that Child has released another project of his own, an action-packed short story collection called ‘Safe Enough: And Other Stories’. He told Mike Hosking that they’re stories he’s written over the course of his career, and since stepping back from Reacher, someone suggested he make a collection. “They were kind of secret projects of mine that I would do anything I wanted,” Child said. “And I'm very interested to see what other people think of them.” The oldest story was written twenty years ago, back in 2004, with the others all falling somewhere in between then and the present. “I have no idea what people will think. I hope they like them, but we shall find out.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
