#12: Books of the Year, Bernardine Evaristo, Nina Stibbe & more...

Hosted by acclaimed author Cathy Rentzenbrink, the twelfth edition of The Bookseller Podcast features our very own Philip Jones, Alice O’Keeffe and Caroline Sanderson in a 2019 round-up. Cathy asks an impossible question – what was your favourite book of the year? – and the hosts share what books they would like to see underneath the Christmas tree… Cathy interviews not one but two of this year’s award-winning novelists: Bernardine Evaristo, winner of the 2019 Booker Prize with Girl, Woman, Other; and Nina Stibbe, author of Reasons to be Cheerful and winner of this year’s Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction. In this month’s Meet the Indie section Nigel chats to Andy Rossiter from Rossiter Books in Ross-on-Wye. This month on Bookgig there’s a City Focus on Edinburgh, highlighting events with authors such as Erin Morgenstern and Nigel Slater taking place in the Scottish capital. And playing us out – an extract from The Beast of Buckingham Palace written and read by David Walliams. The Bookseller Podcast is a Heavy Entertainment Production.
