Where incense filled churches meets sapphic socialites with fortitude

Dr. Tamsin Paige, a distinguished Senior Lecturer at Deakin Law School, is renowned for her work on dissecting legal practice in popular fiction through her academic papers. Apart from her scholarly pursuits, she is also known as a DJ, a former french pâtissier, and intriguingly, has potentially been involved in apprehending Somalian pirates at some point, only to later document the experience in writing.


During the episode, hosts Clare and Tamsin engage in a unique activity where they select fragrances for each other that would perfectly complement a book of their choosing. This exercise leads to a captivating discussion exploring the intricate connections between scent, fiction, and ethics. Tune in to delve deep into the world of literature and perfume with Clare and Dr. Tamsin Paige in this thought-provoking episode of Paperback Perfumes.
