Chris Power talks to the writer Hisham Matar about his new novel My Friends. His previous books, including the Booker shortlisted In the Country of Men, Anatomy of a Disappearance, and the Pulitzer Prize winning The Return, have dealt with the difficulty of living in the shadow of oppressive regimes. My Friends describes the relationship between three exiled friends from Libya - Khaled, Mustafa and Hosam - over several decades from the 1980s to the 2010s and the terrible events which were to shape the young men's lives in the UK.

And we hear about two new psychological thrillers which take us into the glamour and underworld of stage and film. Chris MacDonald鈥檚 The Actor follows Adam who, on the brink of winning an Oscar, is haunted by his past life at a toxic drama school. Here In The Dark, by New York Times culture critic Alexis Soloski, follows theatre critic Vivian who gets caught up in a real-life missing person story which outdoes for drama the plays she spends so much of her time evaluating and eviscerating.
