2023/07/01

For the latest FBC Paris podcast episode, I happily handed the microphone over to my friend Charlotte Moreau, a French journalist and writer.Here’s the context: I first heard about Claire last year through friend and book club member Betsy. I started following her on Instagram and reached out when she posted about the media silence following the release of her second book but first novel, Féminin. While I wanted to offer Claire a safe space in which to talk about her experience, I knew that a native

2023/02/20

I’m delighted to introduce you to Juliette and Margot, the owners of Librairie Majo in the 5th arrondissement of Paris, which opened its doors on the 18th October 2022. Having first met as students at Sciences Po over a decade ago, Juliette and Margot have lived together in Paris, in Tokyo, then in Paris again, and today they live 3 minutes away from each other. The idea of opening a bookshop together started out as a pipe-dream, a joke. But dissatisfied with their jobs, and sharing a desire to do

Today on the podcast, I’m talking to Daisy Johnson, author of Sisters, which was our October book club pick (and gave some of us nightmares!) Daisy was born in 1990 and her debut short-story collection, Fen, was published in 2016. In 2018 she became the youngest author ever to be shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize with her debut novel Everything Under.We spoke about the trio of women featured in Sisters, about love, about bodies, about where the horror genre fits into intersectional feminism,

Fiona is the French owner of Damn Fine Bookstore, an international bookshop based in Lyon, France. A few years ago, she quit her non-bookish related job to fulfil her dream of opening an independent bookshop. But there were a few hurdles along the way, including a pretty big one that goes by the name of COVID-19. On the cusp of Damn Fine’s one year anniversary, Fiona kindly took some time out of her busy schedule to chat to me about how she set up shop, why she loves Halloween, reading women

If you’re a fan of Greek mythology and women's voices in particular, you will love These Great Athenians. The debut novel from non-binary writer Valentine Carter, gives voice to 16 of the oft-forgotten and misunderstood female characters of Homer’s epic The Odyssey. Valentine and Lou talk about LGBTQ+ representation within the world of mythology and the limitations of heteronormative interpretations of its characters, as well as Valentine’s research for their book, their writing process, and why

My first guest of Season 4 is Sylvia Whitman, owner of Shakespeare and Company Bookshop. In 2004, Sylvia took over the running of the bookshop from her father George Whitman, at 23 years old. She now runs it with her partner David, and together they have started a literary festival, a writing competition and opened a café next door to the bookshop. James Baldwin called Shakespeare and Company the old curiosity shop while Anaïs Nin described it as a house of gentle warmth with walls of books and tea
