Writing a book about one's life can be a finely calibrated balancing act - revealing emotional truths and vulnerability, while telling an interesting, well-written story, all without giving too much of yourself up.

And then in Footnotes, we talk about a podcast that looks at the life and views of a previously well-loved, now controversial author, JK Rowling.
