Talking to Book People About Books (and Other Stuff): Series 1, Episode 8 with Tara Westover

In “Talking to Book People about Books and Other Stuff” we video-chat to author friends old and new, and other bookish folk too, about how they’ve been getting on in this oddball 2020 world, about how isolation has affected their reading and writing and, frankly, about anything else that crops up.

In Episode 8 we speak to Tara Westover, author of the bestselling memoir ‘Educated’. In this episode, Nic and Tara speak about the inflammatory nature of mainstream media, the pressures of success, and the homogenisation of the book industry.
