Anna MacLeod talks to two guests each week about their favourite books and also finds out more about their lives.

In this episode, Ishbel Murray, a teacher and artist, tells of her travels and discusses The Book of Books by Melvyn Bragg, which was written after a personal tragedy. Alasdair Crow, who is a Gaelic-learner, tells us why he is now learning to speak Icelandic and reads from the book Ùpraid, which was translated from Gaelige to Gaelic.

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