Q. You’ve just finished a book, and the next best thing was to come to India as you said. What is the book about?
A. I have finished The Green Road. It is coming out globally in May, next year. It is a family story set in the west of Ireland with four children who grow up and see Europe and go all over the world, the way Irish children do. I think Indian children increasingly do too. So, the characters have to come home as their mother who is in her 70s says she has to sell the house in which all of them grew up.
