Author - Colm Tóibín

Stephen Sackur speaks to an Irish writer whose intense, lyrical novels have won him awards, acclaim and most importantly millions of readers around the world.

There are recurring themes in his work - loss, mourning, exile, which might suggest a dark, brooding presence - but how close is that to the real Colm Tóibín?
