In this witty and illuminating memoir, BBC journalist Robin Lustig looks back on his life as a newsman, from coming under fire in Pakistan to reporting on the fall of the Berlin Wall; and from meeting Nelson Mandela to covering Princess Diana's sudden death. Astute, incisive, and frequently hilarious, Is Anything Happening? is both an irresistible personal memoir and an insightful reflection on world events over the past forty-five years.
Robin Lustig is a British journalist and radio broadcaster. He worked for Reuters and The Observer before moving, in 1989, on to presenting Newshour on the BBC World Service.
