Highlights Books by Clare Leslie Hall: Broken Country, Days You Were Mine (previously published as Mine), and Pictures of Him (previously published as Him). Clare gives a brief, spoiler-free overview of Broken Country.  Clare's inspiration for Broken Country. How the themes of love, guilt, and connection play roles in the novel. The ways Broken Country developed and changed over the course of her writing process. How Clare decided that this was no longer a contemporary novel and needed to be set in the 1950s and 1960s. The aspect of the book of which she's most proud. How Broken Country came to be her first book released in the U.S. What the marketing looked like for Broken Country compared to her first two novels. Anything Clare would change about Broken Country down the line should she have the opportunity (since she was able to change the ending of her second book for the U.S. release).

Miranda Cowley Heller became an international bestseller in 2021 with her first novel The Paper Palace. But although she has had a success that most novelists can only dream of, Miranda was writing poetry long before trying her hand at fiction and really thinks of herself first and foremost as a poet. Her first collection, What the Deep Water Knows, will be published in May. Fellow novelist Daisy Goodwin talks to Miranda about her writing process and the deep connections between fiction and poetry. Miranda will read from her new book, which will be a World exclusive for Adelaide Writers' Week.Event details:Wed 05 Mar, 3:45pm | East Stage

In this episode, Rachel Leah Blumenthal, food editor at Boston Magazine, takes us deep on this meaty regional specialty. We're grilling her to get all the answers, from the history of steak tips to the best spots to order them. Rachel's longform feature, "The Mysterious Origins of Steak Tips, a Uniquely New England Dish" The Northeast Philly Guy Monk portrait A good mechanic in South Philly. A great essay on the specific mental psychosis of a certain kind of doomer Philly fan (Defector). Sandwich, a Cape Cod novel by Catherine Newman; I preferred Paper Palace for family secrets and kettle pond swims. Have feedback on this episode or ideas for upcoming topics?

In podcast episode 154, we're diving into the world of book cover design with Karen Horton, graphic designer and former Art Director at Henry Holt. Karen takes us behind the scenes of the process of book cover design, who makes key book cover related decisions, and the role of marketing budgets and author's reputation in this process. Plus, Karen shares her book recommendations! This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). CLICK HERE for the full episode Show Notes on the blog. Highlights The high-level book cover design process. When and why publishers reach out to designers before a book's launch proposal. The dynamics of deciding which books a designer works on. Freelance vs In-house: Factors that determine who gets to design the top titles. The lesser-known “silent auction” approach some publishers adopt. Whether book cover designers really read the whole book. Who holds the final decision about a book cover. The author's role in the decision-making process and the factors that impact how that can play out. How marketing budgets and an author's reputation influence design choices. The influence of ongoing design trends and when publishers decide to break away from them.

Hiya, book club besties! This month, we read the New York Times Number One Best Seller: The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller. The story's protagonist is Elle Bishop, a 50-something woman in love with two men - her husband, and her childhood best friend. As the blurb tells us, “so begins a story that unfolds over twenty-four hours and across fifty years.” What is Elle's big secret - the one that has kept her tethered to, but arm's distance from, her best friend Jonas? And which man will she choose in the end? Today on the show, Mich, Zara, and Annabelle go everywhere: from standout characters, to the theme of intergenerational trauma, before a big chat about that ending. Join us in the all the book chat over on our Insta, @theshamelessbookclub, and our TikTok, @theshamelessbookclub.

Are there times when you wonder what sort of world our children and grandchildren will inherit? Grace Chan has created an online world called Gaia in which the people of 2080 take refuge from the climate ravaged earth. Gaia is clean, beautiful and exciting and it's just announced the opportunity for citizens to shake off their bodies entirely and permanently upload their consciousness to it. Gaia seems to have everything, but is it enough? And… Join Annie Hastwell's discussion with retired ABC Radio host Annie Warburton about Phillip Roth, the author whose book “Portnoy's Complaint” was considered so filthy in 1969 it was banned from being imported into Australia. The ensuing court battles helped define Australia's censorship laws and ensured an end to book bans in this country. Guests: Grace Chan, author of “Every Version of You” Annie Warburton and Annie Hastwell discuss Philip Roth's books “Portnoy's Complaint” (1969), “The Breast” (1972), “My Life as a Man” (1974), “The Human Stain” (2000), “The Plot Against America” (2004) and “Nemesis” (2010) Our Random reader: Mads Grace's tsundoku contains “Empathy” by Fay Lee, “Everything Feels Like the End of the World” by Else Fitzgerald, “Terminal Boredom” by Izumi Suzuki, “I'm waiting for You” by Bo-Young Kim and “Where the Stars Rise: Asian Science Fiction and Fantasy” edited by Lucas K. Law and Derwin Mak Mads was first inspired to read by the Ramona Quimby books by Beverley Clearey, then “Tomorrow When the World Began” by John Marsden and the complete works of Jane Austen.

This week we read books that hovered somewhere in the beach read category, yet much more challenging and satisfying than the run-of-the-mill sand and surf fluff. Aileen read The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller, a story of summer, secrets, love, and lies.Lauren read Mr. Wrong Number, a hilarious rom-com by Lynn Painter.Alisa read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, about an aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon who is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life.And Josie read Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story with a surprising tale of possible murder.

First time novelist Miranda Cowley Heller has written The Paper Palace, which joins 50 year old Elle as she steals away from a family holiday to have sex with her childhood crush for the first time, while her beloved husband is inside with the rest of her family. How can Elle choose between two equal but entirely different men? Miranda joins Richard and Judy to talk about how her own life inspired the story in a number of different ways – not least that she grew up in mesmerising Cape Cod where the book is set. They also discuss how Miranda wrote the entire novel not knowing herself what decision her protagonist was ultimately going to make.

Miranda Cowley Heller joins Carol Fitzgerald for a “Bookaccino Live” Book Group program to discuss her debut novel, The Paper Palace. Please note that this program is full of spoilers, unlike our interview with Miranda last year, as yes, this is a book group discussion where we assume that everyone has read the book. Miranda talks about the depth of her characters and the need to see the situation through their eyes to grasp the complexity of their choices. She also talks about why she chose to write in first person and set a special timeframe. We conduct a poll about what our book group attendees thought about the ending, and Miranda discusses her choice to write it the way she did. She also talks about writing the screen adaptation for HBO.

Hiya, book club besties!This month, we read the New York Times Number One Best Seller: The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller. The story's protagonist is Elle Bishop, a 50-something woman in love with two men - her husband, and her childhood best friend. As the blurb tells us, “so begins a story that unfolds over twenty four hours and across fifty years.” What is Elle's big secret - the one that has kept her tethered to, but arms distance from, her best friend Jonas? And which man will she choose in the end?Today on the show, Mich, Zara, and Annabelle go everywhere: from standout characters, to the theme of intergenerational trauma, before a big chat about that ending.Got some thoughts on our January pick, ‘Love Stories' by Trent Dalton?

Some of her fondest childhood memories involve long afternoons at the library and then reading late into the night. More than ten years ago, she began journaling about the books she read and turned that passion into writing about books. Her first forays were as a guest reviewer on a friend's blog, but she soon realized she wanted to be reviewing and talking about books on a blog of her own. From there, Novel Visits was born. That was in 2016 and, though the learning curve was steep, she loves being a part of the book community. Novel Visits focuses on new novel reviews (print and audio), previews of upcoming releases, and musings on all things bookish. Next Episode In two weeks (December 8), Catherine (@gilmoreguide) and I will be celebrating the 100th episode of Sarah's Bookshelves Live with the “Ask Me Anything” episode.

We need to talk about the incredible shake-up that's happened in NSW politics in the last week, and if you're not from NSW, we promise you'll still want to know about it. Gladys Berejiklian, like any state premier, has been incredibly divisive this year. The Delta outbreak in NSW has resulted in hundreds of deaths, but just as we are beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, Berejiklian's resignation has shocked people across the country.  Plus, a listener dilemma that sparked some VERY strong reactions.  And... Is the female libido is having a moment? How is Gwyneth Paltrow jumping on the bandwagon? The End Bits: Recommendations: Jessie wants you to read The Paper Palace by Miranda C.

This week's big news is that That Woman Next Door is out now in ebook and print! The book is a slow-burn opposites attract with lots of lesbian processing. Harper is still not writing so she's been occupying herself on Instagram.   We enjoyed the new season of Sex Education a lot, even though it was a bit more serious than previous seasons. It's definitely more educational than the Sex Ed we got in school. We also watched the first episode of Alma's Not Normal on the BBC.   Caroline's book this week is The Paper Palace by Miranda Cowley Heller, which might not be for everyone, but she enjoyed so much.   Tune in again next time for a new episode of Harper Bliss & Her Mrs.  Get in touch with us with your questions, comments, or suggested topics at harperblissandhermrs@gmail.com.  Get some free books by subscribing to the Harper Bliss mailing list.

Miranda Cowley Heller talks to Carol Fitzgerald about her debut novel, The Paper Palace, which was an instant #1 New York Times bestseller. Set on the Outer Cape of Cape Cod over the course of 24 hours, Elle must make a decision about whether to stay with her husband, Peter, or to leave her marriage for her childhood friend, Jonas. The book looks back over Elle's life and delves into moments, including one pivotal one, that will influence her decision. Miranda talks to Carol about how she came to write this book in her fifties after putting it aside almost a decade ago and the story's development. She talks about how her poetry background has influenced her writing. They discuss the cover, which has its own background in her family. Miranda is currently writing the script for the book's adaptation for HBO, a homecoming of sorts for her, as she worked as the head of programs at HBO, including "The Sopranos," "Six Feet Under," and "The Wire."
