Anna Nicleòid a' còmhradh ri dithis neach mu na leabhraichean as fheàrr leotha. Anna MacLeod talks to guests Rody Gorman and Ramsay MacMahon about their favourite books.

Anns an treas sreath de Leugh Mi bidh Anna Nicleòid a' còmhradh ri dithis neach gach seachdain mu na leabhraichean as fheàrr leotha. Bidh Rody Gorman, bàrd agus sgrìobhadair a Èirinn a' bruidhinn air Ulysses, leabhar ainmeil le James Joyce, a thòisich e a' leughadh aig aois seachd bliadhna deug agus chur e crioch air dìreach dà bhliadhna air ais.

Tha Ramsay MacMahon e fhèin a' cumail le ùghdaran clasaigeach leis na taghaidhean aigesan; Dracula le Bram Stoker agus The Picture of Dorian Gray le Oscar Wilde, a' togail cheistean air nàdar mac an duine mar olc, peacaidhean agus breitheanas. A bharrachd air bruidhinn mu thrì de na leabhraichean as fheàrr leotha tha gach duine air aon dhiubh sin a mholadh dha chèile 'son a leughadh agus gheibh sinn a-mach anns a' phrògram co- dhiù an do chòrd na leabhraichean riutha - neo nach do chòrd.

In the third series of Leugh Mi, Anna Macleod is in conversation with two guests each week about their favourite books. Irish writer and poet Rody Gorman shares his passion for Ulysses by James Joyce, a book he started reading at 17 years of age and completed only two years ago.

Ramsay MacMahon discusses the works of other classic writers, such as; Bram Stoker and Oscar Wilde and their treatment of the human condition, including evil, transgression and judgement. As well as discussing their favourite books each guest will have chosen a book for the other to read and we'll find out in the programme whether they enjoyed it - or not!
