Minnie Driver Instagram – 1.00 – 1.55pm THE COST OF LIVING: Deborah Levy discusses her trilogy of ‘living autobiographies’ (Real Estate, The Cost of Living, Things I Don’t Want to Know) with actor and writer @driverminnie (Managing Expectations). “To separate from love is to live a risk-free life. What’s the point of that sort of life?” MERCHANTS OF THE THRILLER: @anthony_horowitz (Close to Death) and @liznugentwriter (Strange Sally Diamond) talk about the art of cliffhangers and page-turners. AFRICA RISING: @sissaylemn (Let the Light Pour In) and @afuahirsch (Brit(ish) On Race, Identity and Belonging) explore how young creatives are reinventing culture across Africa in fashion, film and music, referencing Afua’s three-part BBC documentary Africa Rising. THE STATE OF US: Ireland has relied on emigration; it now relies on immigration for economic growth.
