Stuck for inspiration about what to buy the passionate readers in your life? The Women’s Podcast has got you covered.
We asked our book clubbers Bernice Harrison, Niamh Towey, Ann and Róisín Ingle to tell us about the books they’ve enjoyed reading this year.
This episode is bursting with their great suggestions, including two memorable memoirs, two set in the North and a book “for anyone who’s had a hard year or a life changing year”, plus lots more.
Later on in the episode, you’ll also hear from the author of one of those book recommendations: Maggie O’Farrell, who will be discussing her ninth novel, A Marriage Portrait.
‘A haon, a dó, a trois’: How a tiny French village fell in love with Irish dancing
Pamela Anderson: ‘I felt like life was really like death for me’
Jamie Dornan: ‘I lost my mom, and I lost four of my best friends in an accident. I had a difficult few years’
Dr Lydia Foy: ‘I never got an apology actually. It would be nice to get one’
She talks to podcast presenter Róisín Ingle about the tragic and somewhat true story of Lucrezia di Cosimo de’Medici who inspired the vivid, moving tale.
