Alex Clark is joined by best-selling novelist and author of Big Little Lies, Liane Moriarty, whose latest book Nine Perfect Strangers is a satirical look at the wellness industry.

Dear Mr Murray is a selection of letters from the John Murray archive, released to celebrate the publisher's 250th anniversary. Editor of the collection David McClay explains how he made his selection from half a million letters, and what we can learn about Jane Austen, Charles Darwin and Lord Byron from their correspondence with their publisher.

And Alex Clark and guests Sharmaine Lovegrove, Dr Priyamvada Gopal and Chloe Currens consider how the literary canon can be expanded and reimagined to reflect more diverse perspectives and historical context.
