The Final Draft podcast is all about books, writing and literary culture. We're dedicated to exploring Australian writing, looking into the issues that drive our storytelling to discover more from the books you love.

These are the stories that make us who we are.

Lech Blaine is the author of the memoir Car Crash and the Quarterly Essays Top Blokes and Bad Cop. His new work is Australian Gospel.

Australian Gospel is a family saga, it’s Lech's family saga, detailing the lives of his mum & dad, and his foster siblings. It’s also about the lives of Michael and Mary Shelley, the biological parents of three of Lech's brothers and sisters and the religious zealots who hounded their existence.

Final Draft is produced and presented by Andrew Pople
