JOJO MOYES SPECIAL: in conversation about Someone Else's Shoes




The Literary Salon show

Summary: Welcome to this special episode sharing a conversation between Jojo Moyes and Alex Clark about Jojo's new novel, 'Someone Else’s Shoes'! Jojo's novels have sold over 51 million copies worldwide, hit the Number One spot in 12 countries, have been translated into 46 languages and one of her bestselling books was adapted into a film starring Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke. Someone Else’s Shoes is her 16th novel, and we were incredibly excited to have her on a special Instagram Live last month, just 24 hours after it hit UK bookshops! In the book we meet Nisha Cantor and Sam Kemp, two very different women whose lives become unexpectedly intertwined after a bag mix-up at the gym. Nisha lives the globetrotting life of the seriously wealthy, until her husband inexplicably cuts her off entirely. Sam is struggling to keep herself and her family afloat. Now Nisha’s got nothing and Sam’s walking tall in a pair of Louboutins that catch eyes – and give her career an unexpected boost. Except Nisha wants her life back - and she’ll start with her shoes . . .  Our guest host for this conversation, Alex Clark, is a journalist and broadcaster often seen in the pages of the Guardian, the Times Literary Supplement and heard on BBC Radio 4. A wildly experienced interviewer and chair of live events, her recent guests include Kazuo Ishiguro, Tessa Hadley and Melissa Harrison. We hope you'll enjoy this podcast of the Instagram Live interview, and do keep your eyes peeled on our Insta for more Lives with your favourite authors this year! Someone Else’s Shoes is published by Michael Joseph and available now.
