In this series Anna Macleod is in conversation with two guests each week about their favourite books and also finds out more about their lives. In this programme we hear from Anna Martin and Kirsty Maclean about their Australian connections, amongst other things.

One book in particular revealed to Anna Martin the turbulent history of Australia's aborigines, but she also explains why a certain children's storybook means so much to her and her family.

Kirsty Maclean's book choices also take her back to Australia, the land of her birth, and she also reveals how two novels centred on World War II have had an impact on her.

In addition to discussing their favourite books, each guest has chosen a book for the other to read, and we'll find out in the program whether they enjoyed it - or not! Show less
