J.K. Rowling to Give First On-Air Interview as Robert Galbraith

The Guardian reports that J.K. Rowling is set to give her first on-air interview as Robert Galbraith on BBC2’s radio. In the interview, which will be part of Simon Mayo’s Drivetime Show, Rowling will promote Career of Evil, the third Cormoran Strike novel Rowling has written using the pseudonym Robert Galbraith.

The Guardian states that:

Rowling is expected to talk about why she decided to write as Galbraith, and her feelings once her identity as the author of the books was exposed.

Mayo will also read out five reviews from listeners who have applied to review Career of Evil as part of the Radio 2’s Book Club.

The Radio 2 interview will be Rowling’s second appearance as Robert Galbraith. During the first interview, an on-stage conversation with Val McDermid, Rowling showed up in a suit and tie. It remains unclear and is up for speculation how Rowling will mark her character on the radio.

The interview will appear on Simon Mayo’s Drivetime Show on November 2, 2015.
