MEDIAPART

American writer Lionel Shriver’s tenth novel, So Much For That, is a furious attack on the US healthcare system and an uncompromising reflection on the painful issues surrounding the prolonging of the lives of those suffering from deadly disease. It was published earlier this year in French, when Mediapart caught up with the author in Paris for this lively series of video interviews in English.
