S2, E2: The Literary Edit Podcast with Cressida Connolly

For the second episode of the second season of The Literary Edit podcast, I was joined by the utterly divine Cressida Connolly. You can read her list of Desert Island Books here, and the ones we discuss in the episode are:   The Complete Stories of Anton Chekhov Bleak House by Charles Dickens All God’s Children Need Travelling Shoes by Maya Angelou The Beginning of Spring by Penelope Fitzgerald Personality Types by Don Richardson Riso and Russ Hudson The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Friends & Relations by Elizabeth Bowen Poems of Wang Wei translated by G W Robinson   Other books we spoke about included Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell, Don’t Look Now by Daphne Du Maurier and Alice Munroe’s short stories.   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, who deliver all over the country.   Facebook The Literary Edit   Instagram @the_litedit @cressidaconnolly   Twitter @thelitedit
