Hear THE BOOK SHOW (ABC Radio) interview John M. Green about NOWHERE MAN

John M Green is ‘the new Michael Crichton – but better!’ That’s the endorsement of US satirist P.J. O’Rourke, emblazoned across the front cover of John M. Green’s debut novel Nowhere Man. So who is John M Green? Not so long ago he was a corporate lawyer and a senior executive with the millionaires’ factory, Macquarie Bank but one day it dawned on him that his day job was not the reason he got up in the morning. So he quit the bankers life and devoted himself to his craft – but as many aspiring novelists will know, being a writer and getting published are two different things.
