Joan Mackenzie: Great Circle, My Mother and Other Stories
from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB
Great Circle by Maggie Shipstead. This is a truly glorious book, all 590 pages of it, which I didn’t want to end.It’s the story of two (fictional) women living in different times: Marian Graves who – in the style of Jean Batten – lived unconventionally and became an obsessive aviator; and Hadley Baxter, a Hollywood actress who many years later plays the role of Marian in a movie about her life.Both women, in their different eras, are single minded, courageous, and living life on their own terms. My Mother and Other Stories by Wendyl Nissen – I think needs no introduction to you guys but let me know if you want some info. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
