Ever wondered what life would've been like if one ancestor had made a slightly different decision? Well, BBC World journalist and TV producer Nadia Ragozhina saw all the possibilities in her research for her family memoir, Worlds Apart. She discovered  a web of incredible stories from two cousins finally united almost a century after their fathers left turn-of-the-century Warsaw. One brother left for Switzerland, the other for Russia.  Nadia joins us to talk about two of her favourite novels, 1Q84 and A Little Life, and what it was like writing her fascinating book.
