Ep 196 Women Writers We Love

The Beast from the East saw our presenter stranded abroad, while the production team had a glimpse into the lives of those people who "work from home". Determined not to let our listeners down however, Róisín recorded an episode in her bedroom in which she celebrates great female writers ahead of International Women's Day. In this podcast, you'll hear extracts from Olivia O'Leary's Party Animals, Maggie O'Farrell's contribution to Ann O'Donnell's book Mortification, Maeve Binchy's Baby Blue, an entry from Zlata Filipovic's Zlata's Diary and a taster from Louise O'Neill's new book Almost Love.And, stay tuned to the end of the podcast to hear Amanda Palmer's cover of The Cranberries No Need to Argue, in tribute to the late Dolores O'Riordan.
