Welcome to the episode four of The Queen's Reading Room podcast. 

The Queen's Reading Room podcast is a place for book lovers - and those who wish they loved literature a little more - to be inspired by the bookish confessions of global literary heroes. Authors from all over the world have shared their own literary treasures with us; revealing their favourite writers, most treasured books and earliest reading memories. 

Elif Shafak has long been a friend of The Queen’s Reading Room and so when she agreed to record a podcast episode with us, we knew she wouldn’t disappoint. This remarkable novelist speaks to the unique literary experience of immigrants, as well as the extensive reading that she undertakes in order to create her own masterpieces.
