For the Club’s first meeting, the book of the week is Denise Mina’s The Less Dead.

Graham talks to Denise herself about her brand of ‘tartan noir’ while our clubbers reveal their opinions after reading it. We go behind the mic to hear from actress Maxine Peake on bringing to life DH Lawrence’s classic, Lady Chatterley’s Lover.

All this and plenty more including recommendations for the best suspense novels and picks from Amazon’s romance chart.

For our second club gathering, the book of the week is Zadie Smith’s On Beauty.

Graham talks to Zadie about how her ‘turn of the century’ novel reads today and our clubbers decide if they’re impressed.

The mistress of the audio book, Juliet Stevenson, reveals the secrets of the art with her brand new recording of Pride and Prejudice. Plus, we discover what a gothic novel actually is and share some top picks from the Amazon’s family saga chart.

Our book of the week is Andrew O’Hagan’s Mayflies. Graham talks to Andrew about treading the fine line between autobiography and fiction and our clubbers discuss whether he managed to do it successfully.

Our famous voice is Stephen Mangan, who reveals how much his own children appreciated having him read them fairy stories using all his acting skills (hint – not very much). Plus, we dive into other people’s lives as Alex Clark shares her ‘three of the best’ memoirs.
