At Adelaide Writers' Week, Booker Prize-winner Anne Enright speaks about the contradictions at the heart of families.

Anne joined Claire Nichols in front of a live audience to talk about her latest book The Wren, The Wren. It's about a straight-laced mum, her-free-spirit daughter and the poet father who left them in the lurch. 

Anne also shared insights about her other books including Actress, The Gathering (Booker Prize winner 2007) and Making Babies. And she offered her theory on why Irish poets don't drink!

First broadcast Monday 11 March 2024.
