Really Interesting Women - Podcast

Anna Funder    Ep. 105

Anna Funder is undoubtedly one of Australia’s most acclaimed and awarded writers.

Her 2003 book Stasiland won, amongst many other things, the Samuel Johnson Prize which is for the best non-fiction writing in the English language (!!). Actor Tom Hanks described it as 'fascinating, entertaining, hilarious, horrifying and very important.'

Her 2012 novel, All That I Am, won a myriad of awards including the very prestigious Miles Franklin Award. Both books are international bestsellers, translated into many languages and published around the world.

Her books are important because of the truths they reveal. They are beautifully researched and exquisitely told.  Her legion of fans has been eagerly anticipating her latest novel, Wifedom, which has just been released. I've read it, it's fascinating and important. Geraldine Brooks described the book as, 'Simply, a masterpiece'.

Head to the link in the bio of my instagram account: @reallyinterestingwomen to have a listen to our conversation. It's insightful, thought provoking and gave us both a bit of a giggle.
