Manage episode 435051999 series 3488042
Sarah Pearse lives by the sea in South Devon with her husband and two daughters. After moving to Switzerland in her twenties, she spent every spare moment exploring the mountains in the Swiss Alpine town of Crans Montana, the dramatic setting that inspired her debut novel, The Sanatorium, a Reese Witherspoon Bookclub Pick. The Retreat, her second novel, was also a New York Times Bestseller and a Top Ten Sunday Times Bestseller. Over 1 million copies of her books have been sold in over 30 countries. Her latest book, and the focus of today’s conversation, is The Wilds.
Sarah joins Barbara DeMarco-Barrett to discuss Sarah’s path to writing, prologues, dual point of view, setting, structuring a novel, van life, plotting, and they also talk about her first novel, The Sanatorium, and how she based it on an actual place in the Alps where they did horrid experiments.
