In this episode I chat to writer, journalist and big smiler, Em Brugman, about growing up on the South Coast of NSW, her families history, gender roles and of course her debut novel - The Islands. The Guardian reckons it's "a sensuous blend of social history and imaginative fiction", and I think that's pretty spot on. Read the book and then have a listen, or the other way around, whichever you'd prefer.
