The world-renowned British author Jonathan Coe has spoken to FRANCE 24 about the joys of writing, and his love of mixing a variety of genres in his work. He also warned people to be wary of the self-deprecating British form of humour, something often seen in his books. His latest novel "The Proof of My Innocence" centres around an intriguing plot to sell off the British Health Service, the NHS, amid the chaotically short premiership of Liz Truss. It contains a lot of wry humour and also centres around a murder investigation. Coe, who is in Paris for a book signing, spoke to us in Perspective.
