Book Choice Fine Music Radio

On this episode of Book Choice we've got a book that’s very Italian, one that’s very south African, a thriller-thriller, the new Marian Keyes, young adult fiction, three books on opera, not one bird book review, but two, and a partridge in a pear tree. Book Choice is brought to you by Exclusive Books.

What makes this show extra special is that we welcome three of South Africa’s top publishers, Penguin Random House, Pan Macmillan, Jonathan Ball Publisher’s as well as South Africa’s number one bookseller, Exclusive Books, to join us on the show and introduce us to their big name authors, titles events and news. We like to think of this show as our behind the scenes of publishing show. Nobody knows the publishing industry better than the selection of professionals you’re about to hear from.

We’ve got a feast of book reviews and author interviews on Book Choice. We review the much-awaited Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the new one by Sven Axelrad, called God’s Pocket, and a book called Hiking the Fish, As well as an interview with Candice Carty Williams, Book of the Year award winner, and Roy Haveman’s How to Fix a Country.

We’re heading into May, which means The Franschhoek Literary Festival is coming up. They draw some of the biggest local and international names in fiction and non-fiction, and this year is no exception. So to highlight this incredible opportunity for South African Book, politics and literary lovers, we thought we’d dedicate an entire show, that’s a full hour, to the festival. Join the festival director who will be sharing the inside track with you.

Five reviews plus three interviews equals the number one book show: Book Choice. Join Paige Nick and her team of reviewers for Book Choice, brought to you by Exclusive Books .
