S1, E10: The Literary Edit Podcast with Hannah Rothschild

For the tenth episode of The Literary Edit Podcast (I said in the podcast itself that it was the eleventh episode, I’m 27 days into lockdown down-under which is the only excuse I have to offer) I was joined by author, documentary film maker and philanthropist, Hannah Rothschild.   You can read about Hannah’s Desert Island Books here, and the ones we discuss in this episode are:   The Way we Live Now by Anthony Trollope The Pursuit of Love by Nancy Mitford The Neapolitan Series by Elena Ferrante Scoop by Evelyn Waugh Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy The Overstory by Richard Power Three Wishes by Nica de Koenigswater Black Beauty by Anna Sewell Old Filth by Jane Gardam   Other books we spoke about included Rebecca, Sons and Lovers, Half of a Yellow Sun, The Cazalet Chronicles, A Christmas Carol, The Leopard and The Hungover Games.   If you’d like to buy any of the books we discussed in the episode, please consider doing so from the list I created on Bookshop.org, an online bookstore with a mission to financially support local, independent bookstores. If you’re based in Australia, please consider buying them from Gertrude & Alice. To contact me, email [email protected]   Facebook The Literary Edit   Instagram: @the_litedit   Twitter: @thelitedit
