Mel is joined in the studio by Laura Elizabeth Woollett to discuss her latest short story collection, West Girls. She draws upon her experience growing up on Australia’s west coast to bring us tales of sex, money and power.

Plus, Angela O'Keeffe talks about her novella, The Sitter, which is the 2023 recipient of the UQP Quentin Bryce Award. A poignant and considered piece which sheds light on Hortense Cezanne, wife and sometime muse of the famous painter.
