Kit de Waal | Scenes from an Unpredictable Childhood | Edinburgh International Book Festival

Kit de Waal’s influence across contemporary British literature is so broad as to be almost immeasurable. So how is it that one of our titans of the written word grew up with only the Bible to read?
De Waal came to the 2022 Festival to chat about a childhood caught between three worlds and her unforgettable new memoir 'Without Warning & Only Sometimes' with Damian Barr.
