Rock star Suzi Quatro on being an avid reader- she'll be discussing the unlikely classic she re-reads every few years.

Swedish author Marika Cobbold talks about the trick of writing about love as a female writer, while avoiding being pigeonholed as 'romantic' novelist.

George Mackay Brown, Edwin Muir, Sorley MacLean- a surprising number of this country's greatest poets have hailed from Scottish islands. Editor of an impressive new anthology, Kevin MacNeil, joins Clare to explain why.

And: as Edinburgh's new Literary Map is revealed, we'll be finding out why it's middle-aged readers rather than younger ones who are leading the way in using digital technology in the city's libraries.
