Summary: Michael Golding talks about A Poet of the Invisible World, his stunning new novel set in 13th century Persia. This fable explores the spiritual path taken by its main character, a Sufi poet with four ears. Then, Robin Cook tells us about his new medical thriller, Host. It’s about what happens when medical research into the newest class of drugs -- biologics -- intersects with a greed-driven medical system.
