Elizabeth Day talks to the Australian writer Charlotte Wood about her latest novel, The Weekend, an exploration of older age and female friendship.
Elizabeth Day talks to the Australian writer Charlotte Wood about her latest novel The Weekend. Three women in their seventies come together to clear a friend's beach house, and in the process look back at their long friendship, and explore their desires and needs in old age.
Writers Max Lui and Ann Morgan both read widely to travel the world through pages of a book. As many of us stay in the UK this year, they discuss the transportive nature of travel writing, and recommend their favourite books.
And as part of Open Book's continuing exploration of how fiction works, we begin a new series looking at the narrative voice. This week Richard Beard unpicks the first person narrative.
