This week, Hannah and Sam have read four books that legitimately kickass. If you're looking for four of the best writers working today, this is your episode. Naomi Alderman? Cool-ass autofiction with a side of magical realism. Emma Cline? Young talent coming into the height of her powers. Emily St. John Mandel? Absolutely crushes it. Téa Obreht? She's crafted a Russian nesting doll of a story. No idea how we fit this all into a tidy 37 minutes. It's genuinely one of our most enthusiastic episodes ever. This fortnight, we read:

  1. "The Strangers," by Naomi Alderman
  2. "Switzy," by Emma Cline
  3. "Exit Party," by Emily St. John Mandel
  4. "Sunrise," by Téa Obreht

What sound effects did we give each of these books? You'll just have to listen and find out!
