This week Bridie sits down with journalist and author Gina Rushton who has just had her book reviewed in the New Yorker! They discuss horny books to get you out of a reading rut; the different things freaking women out about becoming mothers in Australia, England and America; and what Gina changed her mind about since publishing her book. Her book was published in Australia as The Most Important Job in the World and in the UK and US as The Parenthood Dilemma.
