It's our Booker Shortlist Week!

Anna and Annie discuss the release of The Testaments and the embargo furore.

Our book of the week is 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in This Strange World by Elif Shafak.  Set in Istanbul, it tells the story of Leila and her five best friends.  Described as a 'rich, sensual novel' (The Financial Times) and 'extraordinary' (The Guardian), it's a celebration of friendship and diversity.  Short-listed for the 2019 Booker Prize.

Next, Anna, Annie and Amanda will be reading The Testaments by Margaret Atwood.  Then Anna and Amanda will be back with Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann and An Orchestra of Minorities by Chigozie Obioma.
