David Mitchell Appreciation discussion

This is for posting anything interview, in text or otherwise.

Here, he gives a talk and a reading at the Toronto Public Library. Watch all five parts on Youtube:

I read through this after Cloud Atlas, http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/...

It is short but has Mitchell discussing the book and much of his inspiration. I got a laugh when he claims Don DeLillo, and drinking, as what encourages him to take 'literary risks'.
