In this episode of TGE’s Current Read*, journalist Sam Herbst welcomes Cecelia Ahern bestselling novelist known for romance sensations like PS I Love You and Where Rainbows End (or Love, Rosie).

Cecelia is arguably one of the most prolific writers of our time, having written a book a year since publishing her debut novel (PS, I Love You) at just 21 years old. Cecelia’s bibliography now totals 19 novels (and counting) and she’s sold more than 25-million copies worldwide, across 40 countries and 30 languages.

The author joins Sam in studio to chat about her writing journey and her latest book, in a thousand different ways, which deals with empathy and a real-world experience of synaesthesia. She also reveals the title and premise of her forthcoming book, Into the Storm, due this October.

*TGE’s Current Read is a sister subsidiary of The Great Equalizer, an unfiltered podcast about parenting.

Blurb for in a thousand different ways:
Alice sees the worst in people.
She also sees the best.
She sees a thousand different emotions and knows exactly what everyone around her is feeling.
Every. Single. Day.
But it’s the dark thoughts.
The sadness. The rage.
These are the things she can’t get out of her head. The things that overwhelm her.
Where will the journey to find herself begin?

'Utterly wonderful . . . Cecelia Ahern is a master storyteller at the absolute peak of her powers. Her heroine, Alice Kelly, is completely unique – beguiling, complicated, extraordinary – and she'll change the way you see the world.' – Clare Pooley, bestselling author of The Authenticity Project

'A novel that's so wise and profound, there's gold on every page.' – Donal Ryan, Booker-longlisted author of The Queen of Dirt Island
