Historical fiction has a magical power to bring the past to life.
The latest novel from bestselling writer Emily Maguire, Rapture, is an ambitious and audacious story of a woman disguised as a monk in 9th century Mainz. Moving between Scotland and Melbourne, Jock Serong’s Cherrywood is a haunting and playful story of legacy and community.
Step back in time with Emily and Jock as they discuss their novels with Kate Evans (ABC Radio National’s The Bookshelf).
