This week we caught up with Gail Jones to talk about her latest novel, The Death of Noah Glass. We discuss family, grief, and the themes of masculinity that run throughout her book. Plus, we have our usual book news section, where we discuss the Booker shortlist, and we round it all off with a 10 second review from John Boyne.
