Peter Stanford’s most recent book, Gaudi: God’s Architect (Hodder & Stoughton, 2026) – along with his earlier Judas: The Troubling History of the Renegade Apostle (John Murray) – is a masterly work which somehow makes a virtue of the patchiness of source material pertaining to its subject. Ann Wroe, winner of the Biographers’ Club’s Exceptional Contribution prize in 2020, is another such virtuoso under these conditions, with subjects including Pontius Pilate and Perkin Warbeck. Their conversation will fascinate anyone interested in the biographer’s art.
