Interview – Dave Hutchinson on science fiction, spies and le Carre

44 min•16 mars 2026

In this episode, I speak with author Dave Hutchinson about his science fiction writing, how that’s overlapped with espionage and his favorite le Carré novel.

We talk about his book series set in a near future Europe that has splintered into tiny nation states, his latest novel The Essence which returns to the spy world as we follow a minor MI6 functionary drawn into a conspiracy beyond his wildest imagination, and The Honourable Schoolboy.

In addition, we talk about le Carré’s evoking a sense of doom in THS and how it seems like the fall of the Circus has cursed all of England.

Plus, updates on the television adaptation of Europe In Autumn coming from the creative team behind the TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY film!

All that and much more in this episode.
