Novelist Emma Pei Yin ran away from Hong Kong as a teenager to start fresh in Australia. But she found herself repeatedly drawn back home whenever she put pen to paper.Emma grew up in England and Hong Kong. But her life in Hong Kong wasn't so much about the neon skyscrapers as it was about her family's ancestral village, tucked away in the New Territories.Emma spent her school holidays there with her grandparents, learning how to take care of the family cemetery and joining in Chinese Festivals.Sometimes her grandfather would share his memories of the Second World War, when the Japanese military invaded and occupied Hong Kong.As Emma became into a teenager, her relationship with her parents deteriorated. She eventually decided to leave them and Hong Kong, coming to Australia to make a life for herself as a writer.But whenever she wrote, Emma found herself drawn back to Hong Kong; to the hundreds of islands, the fishing villages on stilts, the mountains, woodlands and beaches – all the things that tourists who think of Hong Kong as a city of neon lights and free Wi-fi don't know about.Content warning: This episode of Conversations contains discussion about sexual assault.Further informationWhen Sleeping Women Wake is published by Hachette.Help and support is always available.

#160  - From Chronically Ill to Thriving: The Wellness Comeback Story You Need to Hear with Amy Kurtz, Author of Kicking Sick What happens when your body becomes the thing holding you back from living your life? In this episode of The Pretty Well Podcast, I'm joined by Amy Kurtz—author, speaker, and wellness warrior who's turned her own experience with chronic illness into a powerful mission to help others heal. We're talking about what it really takes to live well with invisible illness, how to become your own best advocate, and why your symptoms aren't “just in your head” (even if you've been told that one too many times). Amy shares the mindset shifts, do-able practices, and functional wellness tools that helped her go from barely surviving to thriving. If you've ever felt gaslit, overwhelmed, or just plain exhausted by the medical system, this conversation will feel like a deep breath and a power-up all at once. Because healing isn't linear—but it is possible. You don't have to settle for “you'll just have to live with it.”   More About Amy Kurtz: Facing debilitating pain and health issues since her teenage years, patient advocate and author Amy Kurtz well knows the frustration, fear and isolation that comes with chronic illness.  She wrote the bestselling book Kicking Sick as a reader guide to managing debilitating conditions and living fully. A distinct voice in the health space, Amy's work has been heralded by Mark Hyman,  Deepak Chopra, Kris Carr and more. Lena Dunham named Kicking Sick one of her “top 10 desert island books of all time” in NY MAG.  She has appeared in Oprah, as well as on Good Morning America several times, and Fox. Amy's second book, “But You Look Fine, Trapped in the Hell between Sick and Well and how to Break Free” is due out from Hachette in Spring 2026.  LInks & Resources: Website: https://amykurtz.com/ Social: https://www.instagram.com/_amykurtz https://www.facebook.com/amykurtzauthor   Amy's Book: *Kicking Sick: Your Go-To Guide for Thriving with Chronic Health Conditions https://amzn.to/4ixOQOd  *As An Amazon Associate I Earn A Small Commission From Qualifying Purchases At No Extra Cost To You*   Join the conversation: Share your thoughts with us on social media or in the comments!

¿Cómo narrar desde una memoria que traiciona? ¿Cómo meterse en la piel de un hombre de 70 años cuando se es una escritora joven y feminista? En este capítulo, María del Mar Ramón nos habla de La memoria es un animal esquivo (Hachette), una novela conmovedora y feroz que explora la culpa, el recuerdo y la masculinidad silenciada.Juan Francisco, su protagonista, reconstruye desde el exilio interior una vida marcada por el duelo, el arte y el peso de lo no dicho. Con una prosa íntima y lúcida, María del Mar logra un ejercicio de voz narrativa que desestabiliza certezas y conmueve desde lo más humano.Conversamos sobre escritura y memoria, sobre ficciones masculinas escritas desde la empatía, y sobre cómo la literatura puede ser un acto de compasión. Un capítulo para lectores atentos, para quienes se preguntan si es posible no dejar que se nos escape la vida entera sin reconciliarnos con quienes amamos.#LaMemoriaEsUnAnimalEsquivo #MariaDelMarRamon #ParedroPodcast #LiteraturaColombiana #PodcastDeLibros #NarrativaLatinoamericana #FeminismoYFicción #VocesLatinas #Hachette #PodcastLiterario #LibrosQueTransforman #FicciónContemporánea #DíaDelPadre #Reconciliación #MemoriaYFicción

La Nerdoteca, nuestro club de lectura de comics. Este mes (en mayo, en realidad), leímos Astérix y los Normandos, Albert Uderzo (arte) y René Gosciny (guión), creadores de los irreductibles galos. Originalmente fue publicado por entregas en la revista Pilote (editorial Dargaud) en 1966, y recopilada en álbum al año siguiente, por la editorial Hachette, mientras que Grijalbo la publicó en español en 1974. La primera aparición de Asterix fue en 1961, así que estamos ante un comic y universo nuevito, aunque bien poblado, cuando se publica este comic.

Homme d'affaires disant mener un "combat civilisationnel", Vincent Bolloré exerce un contrôle très important sur le milieu médiatique français.

When Hilde Hinton was on the cusp of adolescence, her mother died. For years she protected her younger siblings from the truth about their mum.Despite the great grief of her mother's shocking death when Hilde was just 12 years old, there was also a sense of relief for Hilde. She shielded her younger siblings, Samuel and Connie Johnson, from the truth of how and why their mother died.But when Connie also died, decades later of cancer, Hilde was propelled into writing her first novel, in between shifts as a prison officer.Her debut book, The Loudness of Unsaid things, was intensely autobiographical.While Connie never got to read the book, Hilde's brother Samuel finally 'met' their mother through Hilde's writing, and learned all that his big sister had done for them growing up.Now, from her home in Melbourne, where people who need solace freely come and go, Hilde explores in her writing the ordinary things that make life extraordinary.This episode was produced by Meggie Morris.

Laura Caygill reviews The Names by Florence Knapp published by Hachette

Creative work in itself is stressful and riddled with anxiety-provoking uncertainties. It takes resilience to persist through these challenges. It takes willingness to endure and overcome obstacles, from the internal voices of doubt and self-criticism to scarce material resources to difficulties in getting support for ideas. How are creative people able to do what others cannot?

Dyslexic herself, Jane writes for those with reading difficulties, highlighting how animals - dogs in particular - help children in so many ways, not least in learning to read out loud. In her multi award winning ‘Moon Dog' , she depicts the  horrors of the puppy farming trade. Raising awareness for the next generation of dog owners, she worked with the charity All Dogs Matter to convey the horrific details, and the effects of losing a puppy on the whole family.  In  her latest novel Storm Horse, inspired by the racehorse Seabiscuit, who in the 1930's represented hope for the Americans struggling through the Depression; and why history can inspire the present. Jane also highlights why horses help build children's confidence, helping them learn to read and be in the moment. Weaving characters through her series, she's inspired by London and the legacy of her own kitten called Crayon who sadly died very young.Published by Hachette, Storm Horse and Moon Dog both mark the era of the pandemic and work on several levels making them great for grown ups too!Follow Jane on Twitter @JJELSON35 and Instagram @JJElson35For more about Anna go to annawebb.co.ukMusic and production by Mike Hanson for Pod People ProductionsCover art by JaijoCover photo by Rhian Ap Gruffydd at Gruff PawtraitsTo advertise on or sponsor A Dog's Life email: info@theloniouspunkproductions.com
