I'm Sarah Pascoe.

And I'm Cariad Lloyd.

And we're weird about books.

We love to read.

We read too much.

We talk too much.

Which is why we created the Weirdos Book Club.

Each week we're joined by amazing comedian guests and writer guests to discuss some wonderfully and crucially weird books, writing, reading, reading.

and just generally being a weirdo.

We will share all the upcoming books we're going to be discussing on our Instagram, Sarah and Cariad's Weirdos Book Club.

This week's book guest is Land by Maggie O'Farrell.

What's it about?

Set after the Great Famine, Thomas is a mapmaker working with his son on a revised ordnance survey project.

Something happens when he's in the forest, which leads to life-changing consequences.

In this episode, we discuss Ireland, inappropriate sitcoms, writing, desks, geography and Moomins.

And joining us this week is Maggie O'Farrell herself.

Maggie O'Farrell is, of course, the author of Hamnet, which won the Women's Prize for Fiction in 2020.

She's also the author of an incredible memoir, I Am, I Am, I Am, which was a Sunday Times bestseller.

She's written amazing novels after you've gone the distance between us.

The Hand That First Held Mine, which won the 2020 Costa Novel Award.
