Summary: Caro Llewellyn was living her dream life in her adopted home of New York, directing an international literary festival for Salman Rushdie and the human rights organisation, PEN. Then one day, running in Central Park, she lost all sensation in her legs. Two days later, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. A former artistic director of Sydney Writers’ Festival, Caro joins Susan Wyndham to discuss Diving into Glass, the memoir that Janet Malcolm calls “unpredictable and consistently exhilarating” and Annie Proulx praises as “compelling, portentous [and] packed with shocks of recognition”.
