Sigrid Rausing Investigates A Mysterious Death In The Family

The Leonard Lopate Show | Sep 22, 2017

Sigrid Rausing, editor of Granta magazine and an Honorary Fellow of the London School of Economics and St Antony’s College, Oxford, joins us to discuss her memoir, Mayhem. She tells the story of her brother, billionaire Tetra Pak heir Hans K. Rausing, and his wife, Eva, who in the summer of 2012 was found dead in her London townhouse. The couple had publicly struggled with drug addiction for years, and now, Sigrid tries to make sense of what happened.   

Sigrid Rausing will appear in conversation with author Andrew Solomon on Sept. 25 at 7:00 p.m. at McNally Jackson Booksellers (52 Prince St., between Mulberry and Lafayette St.).
