À propos de cet audio

DBC Pierre is an Australian-born writer currently residing in London. Born Peter Warren Finlay, the “DBC” stands for “Dirty But Clean”. “Pierre” was a nickname bestowed on him by childhood friends after a cartoon character of that name. Pierre was awarded the Booker Prize for fiction on 14 October 2003 for his novel Vernon God Little. He is the third Australian to be so honoured, although he has told the British press that he prefers to consider himself a Mexican. In an interview with the Guardian (U.K.), Pierre explains his varied upbringing:I grew up with a real sense of cultural homelessness…. I haven’t been successful in fitting in anywhere. I clearly wasn’t Mexican, although I could move in that culture as easily as anywhere. I’m a British national but wasn’t quite from here; and I went to school with a lot of expat Americans…. There’s nothing I love more than to just be part of something, for someone to pay you a hello.
