Guest: Anna Cowan | Host: Kat Mayo | Audio producer: Rudi Bremer | Recorded: 25/01/2020 Sydney
Australian author Anna Cowan’s debut novel, Untamed, caused quite a stir and remains a keeper on my shelf. It’s a beautifully written romance that explores gender and power, and we talk about some of the issues that she explores in the story. In the seven years since the book came out, Anna has been raising her children, and we have an incredibly honest conversation about the struggle to manage motherhood with personal ambition.
Finally, Anna names some of her favourite queer romances, and I shamelessly angle to learn some tidbits about her current work in progress!
