On This Month's Bookish Podcast...
Reflections on the biggest literary award of the year, the Man
Booker Prize, which went to Marlon James for A Brief History of Seven Killings;
literary innovation in the form of short story vending machines; and a nearly
middle aged white man complaining about middle aged white men complaining.
Book
club discussion is on four-decade 720-page epic A Little Life by Hanya
Yanagihara – a book which invariably elicits strong opinions from anyone who
reads it.
Psychological
crime writer Louise Phillips, whose
fourth thriller “The Game Changer” is published by Hachette Books Ireland,
joins us for our guest slot Trilogy, picking three books that mean a lot to her
– including a 20th century classic, a little known book by Virginia Andrews and
a relatively recent book from an Irish author.
‘Second
Look’ this month is Julius Winsome by Irish writer Gerard Donovan, and new
books to catch our eye include The Boy Who Fell Off The Mayflower and
Irelandopedia and the November events roundup looks at the Dublin Books
Festival, the Bord Gais Energy Irish Book Awards and two public interviews by
Banter.
