BOOK CLUB: Moon Blooded Breeding Clinic by C.M. Nascosta

What does it really take to breathe life into a bestseller? To make another time come alive? To place us into a polyphony of perspectives?

In this candid conversation, acclaimed author Maggie O’Farrell joins Luke Bateman to unpack her extraordinary life story and highly intuitive creative process. From surviving a life-altering childhood illness at age eight that forced her to re-learn basic motor skills and embrace reading (and re-reading), to inspirations and insights into her most accliamed works such as Hamnet, Land and The Marriage Portrait, and why Irish culture is uniquely built for storytelling.

How Maggie O’Farrell Gives Her Historic Novels Their Own Heartbeat

'Becoming a man is a process of subtraction' - so says one of the leading experts in masculinity and men's mental health. But why? And what can we do to change that?

In this episode, Luke is joined by Dr Zac Seidler: clinical psychologist, Global Director of Research at Movember and Associate Professor with Orygen at the University of Melbourne.

Together, they dismantle the many stories men are told, and learn to tell themselves, about how they should be - from how the pressures of self-optimization culture creates isolated "lone-wolves", to the "perception gap" that keeps men from expressing themselves, and how reading, especially fiction, can serve as an antidote, and a path to empathy and authenticity.
