The Wandering Book Collector with host
Michelle Jana Chan. This is a series of conversations with writers exploring what's informed their books and their lives around themes of movement, memory, sense of place, borders, identity, belonging and home.In this edition, I’m joined by the writer Sophie Ward to discuss her novels, The Schoolhouse, and her debut Love and Other Thought Experiments, long listed for the Booker. Before that, a work of non-fiction, A Marriage Proposal: The Importance of Equal Marriage and What it Means for All of Us. Please consider supporting your local
