Michigan-born writer and artist, Audrey Niffenegger is the author of the runaway bestseller The Time Traveler’s Wife. In this event she chats to Stuart Kelly about her various books, the most recent of which is a graphic novel, The Night Bookmobile. The novel uses Niffenegger’s Chicago base as a backdrop to the tale of a woman who stumbles upon a magical mobile library which reflects her own reading tastes to the letter. But when the bookmobile finally moves on to the next destination, she becomes obsessive and haunted. This event was recorded live at the 2011 Edinburgh International Book Festival.
