Deborah Harkness used her background as a history of science professor to write the the hugely successful “All Souls Trilogy.”
The books are set in a world where witches, vampires and demons live alongside humans, and center around the romance of Diana, a reluctant witch, and Matthew, a vampire who’s 1,500 years old.
As the third and final installment, “The Book of Life,” comes out in paperback on Tuesday, we revisit Here & Now host Meghna Chakrabarti’s conversation with Deborah Harkness from last July, when the book first came out.
