“What Makes a Novelist” on GREAT MINDS takes us into the mind of Julian Barnes, one of the greatest English writers of the last 100 years. This is a fourpart lecture series reconstructed from a 90minutelong interview with him.

The first lecture looks at how Julian Barnes, who started off just writing novel reviews and editing literary journals, debuted and grew as a novelist. We get insights from the novelist's virtues and knowledge he has developed as a writer for the past forty years.

In lecture two, “How to Talk About Death with a Smile,” Barnes explores some of the core themes of his novels: “vague memory” and “mortality.” Barnes conveys the uneasiness of human existence and the terror of uncertainty through his fascinating use of dark humor.

With his third lecture, “Love Doesn't End That Way,” we delve into his philosophy and thoughts on love as we listen to the impact that the death of his wife had on him. In the final lecture, Barnes talks about the essence of the novel as he sees it. This “hybrid writer” discusses the limitless possibilities of novels and the proper attitudes a novelist should have.
