Television (Full Length Episodes) – 2006

Add to watch list

Hosted by novelist Emily Perkins, The Book Show brings together readers and writers to celebrate New Zealand literature. In each episode, Emily Perkins leads a discussion panel to review the featured book of the week. As part of the 'Finlay's Casebook' segment, journalist and writer Finlay MacDonald then makes a house call to an esteemed New Zealand writer, including CK Stead, Joy Cowley and Lloyd Jones. Then Perkins sits down for a one-on-one discussion with a writer about books that have provided creative inspiration — both now, and as children. Check out all of season one's guests and books in this episode guide, plus some choice quotes from the show.

...I used to work as a food writer, and it's only because I got made redundant from that job that I actually ended up writing books.
– Novelist Sarah-Kate Lynch on how she began writing novels, in episode six
