Ep 206: The Colony by Audrey Magee


Listen Later

Anna and Annie discuss the 2022 Booker International Shortlist.

Our book of the week is The Colony by Audrey Magee, author of the Women's Prize shortlisted The Undertaking. The Colony is a novel about colonialism on a wild Irish island. Described as lyrical and intelligent, this one did not work for us but provoked much discussion.

Coming up: The Candy House by Jennifer Egan.
